hi jeff, thanks for your interest about the problem...


yes: the frames before nr. 36 where exposed (and framed) correctly...

yes: it happened with several rolls... at the later rolls i was aware of
the problem, stopped and rewinded at 36; while the winder was winding the
last frame, i realised some "noise" and movement at the backdoor, what
surely indicated the films end... but the winder was ready to "cock" the
shutter again and again and again...

should be indeed a kind of malfunction...

regards, thomas
