A couple of things that I've got problems with and i'm hoping someone may be able to help or at least advise.
I recently bought an F90 off Andysnap and was running a roll of Kodachrome through it so i can get it sent off before Wayne's stop accepting the free developing envelopes later this year. I finished my first roll stuck it in the envelope paid my postage and thought all was good until tonight when I've gone to stick a new roll in my camera. When i went to stick a new roll in my camera wouldn't accept it and kept displaying an err message, after getting frustrated turning it on and off a few times and checking the batteries i still had no joy with putting my new roll of film in. I looked at the collection spool (if that's what it's called, the pit the the exposed film is wound on to inside the camera) and found that my original roll of film had torn off and was still there, hence the reason my new film wasn't being accepted. After i noticed this I've unwound the film in dark room and placed it in a black film canister, I appreciate there may be some fogging, but this leads me on to my first question.
Is there any where i can get the film processed, to see what the results are like or do i have to send it to Wayne's with the relevant amount enclosed?
The second question is, is this a common problem and what is the likely cause of it?
Thanks
Kev
