On my Rollei 35S camera, I have noticed that I am getting uneven
frame spacing.  I believe normal 35mm film frame spacing is
about 2 mm of unexposed film between the exposed frames.
With this particular camera, I am getting from 1/2 mm
to 2 mm spacing - progressively increasing - between
frames.  The progression takes about five negatives
so that every fifth negative is separated from the
next one by the 1/2 mm spacing.  This is very frustrating
when trying to print full frame prints.

Does anyone on the net know if this is a standard feature of
the Rollei 35S or should I be sending this camera in to the
repair center - Marflex in NJ.  I will welcome all comments.
