This has been happening to me for a few years, off and on, with the 100 D stock. I first experienced it only on the Nizo, and more recently on the Canon 1014 and 814. I have yet to try it on the Beaulieau, but after that I am out of options.
Taking the cartridge out and tapping it lightly on a table seems to release the tension, but that is only good for another 20 seconds of shooting. Because the 100 D is so precious, I have been switching between cameras and tapping the cartridge intermittently. The footage i got back shows the flash frames from taking the cartridge out, otherwise I haven't noticed much of an issue in the image itself. I assume this is some kind of issue with the manufacture of the cartridge, though someone else suggested it might have to do with the thickness of the emulsion.
