Another day Another problem.

I have been shooting a couple of test rolls in the F90x, SHD50 film at six images long, anyhow yesterday put in a roll of Apx 100 and the flipping camera got to 5 and then flashing rewind icon appeared.

Is it possible that the camera remembers how many shots on the previous roll there were?

I think I might open the camera in a dark bag to check if it really is at the end after only five shots?

Any suggestions gratefully accepted.

I didnt figure out what was going on with this camera,

Filled with trepidation I opened it in the darkbag and cut the film short and put it on a spool. I then cut a new leader on the role and reloaded it.

When I wound the film on it picked up the counter at six !

I don't know what the flipping heck happened, the role finished at 33, I have just developed it and there has been no adverse effects, if anything just the opposite.

I haven't a clue what will happen next time, I didn't know that F90 could remember the count.

Does the film counter normally reset to 0 when you open the back, press the rewind button or the film is wound back?

I have never really paid that much attention really Suz, the only thing I have ever noticed is a flashing role of film icon.
