Sad but true.... I received my MZ-S from camerworld.com on Wednesday, July
11, 2001. I finally took it out today (Sunday, July 15, 2001). After I
finished my first roll of film the camera rewound about half of the roll.
The camera then started making a horribly loud buzzing noise and then the
motor stopped. Sure enough, I opened the camera and found about half of the
roll still on the takeup spool. I opened and closed the camera and again
heard the same bad noises. The third time it rewound the film the rest of
the way.
I carefully inspected the film cartridge (a fresh roll of Kodak E100VS) and
found no visible dents or damage. The film spool turns freely in the
cartridge, so I don't think that's a problem, either.
The camera is going back to Camera World tomorrow....
