Georg,
How interesting you mention this, in as much as I also have a roll or two and was just about to shoot it this weekend!
I shall try it and report...

Hi!

I just shot a roll of the above. It's a 35mm instant-slide film. I used 
my M6 and noticed a funny thing: the film wasn't transported right. I 
never had this problem with other material. It does look like the 
Polagraph is quite a bit thinner than normal film, so I thought that 
this might be the problem. Anyone had the same problem or any ideas to 
share on this?

The symptoms where that sometimes the film "slided" - it wasn't pulled a 
full frame, but some milimeters less than that, as if one of the 
sprockets didn't catch. So some slides where double exposed in the last 
milimeters.

bye, Georg
