[APML] Pentax 67 Question(s)

["William R. Mattil" <wrmattil@ix.netcom.com>]

Gentlemen,

I am having a minor problem or inconvienance with a Pentax 6x7 and am
curious as to what it might be. Problem is this. After loading and even
shooting images, the winder will sometimes proceed to ratchet but not
move the film. After inspecting the front of the camera I found that the
mirror was "half cocked" as well. This happened once while I was at
Okie-Tex and just this evening while trying to remove the partial roll
from the camera. It was no problem saving the roll thanks to a changing
bag. After removing the exposed roll I loaded a test roll and wound it
through the camera with no problems of note. Has anyone seen this before
? It has been suggested that it may be due to the Hutech Battery
eliminator being pressed too hard ?!? But tonite it wasn't even
connected. The collective wisdom of the group would be appreciated so
that I can get this resolved before the next new moon.

Thanks in Advance

Bill
