It was twilight, and the light was absolutely beautiful. I pressed the button, but only heard half of the song. Click...short buzzzz...then...nothing. I tried winding the film, but the advance was jammed. I rotated the speed dial to B and the shutter closed. Again, I set it to 1 sec, wound the film, click... SAME thing! I took out the film and ran through a dozen exposures at each speed and the problem disappeared. What gives? Should I chalk this one under "Non-reproducable results"? Was this a matter of lack of excercise? Regards, Ben W.
