(and the > camera did'nt stopp...) Then... I'd suggest that the camera malfunctioned. There's that mechanism for disengaging the forward wind for the purpose of doing multiple exposures; ordinarily, you'd have to slide that little multiple-exposure thing over the rewind button (or at the least depress the rewind button) over and over again to see the result you had, so you couldn't have done that by mistake... something must be awry. Has this happened with more than one roll? Are the frames before 36 evenly spaced? Anybody else run across this sort of oddity? -J
