Are you rewinding the film or using the film advance lever two or three times? If you are using the film advance lever, you may have internal mechanical troubles. Take your camera to a repair shop and ask for a estimated
cost for repairs. If you live in an area like I do, you may have to send your camera to a shop.

Hope this helps.

  Hi Mamie;

My question is this. Are you hearing a grinding noise when you wind the film? A friend of mine had the same problem, and his had a grinding noise when he used the winder. It ended up that he had a bad gear in the winding mechanism. It cost about $115 to fix it.

BTW, welcome to BP.

Have fun and keep shooting,
Mark H.
