The ones I had were used with motors and they just ground out roll after roll and never any kind of twitch even when dropped by accident. Well one did sustain some major bruising when the neck strap let go and the camera had a free fall to the concrete landing on the rewind end of the body. However I could still manage to crank out the film until I returned to civilization and could have it repaired. Wonderful machines! ted Grant
