I recently bought a t50 from E-bay.It was perfect. However I read the instructions on-line and didn't read them properly. When I took my fist film out of the camera I didn't press the release button before I wound the finm back. The film was ripped. I did manage to salvage half of the film in the dark room. Now though when I try to put a new film in the camera I get the beeps as if the film is finished. After a few attempt it does take the film but it doesn't beep when the film is finished.I haven't developed any of the films since I've had this problem so I don't know if it is winding the film on or not. Any ideas. I saw on another site that this seems quite a common problem but no one ever says how to fix it. :o)
