I have been extreamly lucky I received a mint Rolleiflex 2.8f with the Zeiss lens from my grandfather. Anyway when I load it with a roll of film and close the back case and begin winding to advance the film...it will wind the entire roll of film without stopping. I thought that it was supposed to stop at the next frame. In doing some research on the internet I found that this is something that happens with rollei cameras (not sure on the authenticity of this). That there is a film feeler that is supposed to tell the camera when the next frame is lined up for exposure and to stop the crank. But I was unable to locate any information on how to make this "film feeler" work. Also the number that tells you what frame you are on is not advancing...but this could be due to the crank never stopping through the whole role of film. Has anyone had any experience with these cameras and could help me out? Thanks,
