R3A - Overlapping Frames?

[enivre]

Hi guys,

I just shot a friend's ROM with my R3A (TriX 400 pushed to 1600 ) and I had a few frames that were overlapping. Was this because I was shooting too quickly?

I had my thumb on the film advance lever and my index finger on the shutter, firing off in quick sucession. :dunno:

Anyone has had this experience?

Seems to be a known problem. Google and have a look at the comments.

Cheers,

That's what the Trigger Winder is for!

I agree. All that quick winding spoils the gears.

Btw, did you wind the camera fully? I had the same problem once and I found I left the wind just slightly out in my haste to wind the camera.
