Karen & Felix,

I gave up on my SX-70, which I still have, because I got uneven compression
of the image when it went through the rollers.  Was this a common problem,
and is there a cure for this?  Perhaps cleaning the rollers in some way? 
Or could this have been a filmpack-related problem?  I haven't tried to
find film packs in several years.
