Uneven spacing happens more often in cameras relying on traditional 
spool and sprocket system to transport the film. Some brands use 
infrared beam for spacing and this is damn precise but has a 
disadvantage - you cannot use genuine infrared films in those cameras 
cause film gets fogged. Thus the only current Canon EOS that permits 
use of IF films is the EOS-1V where the IF sytsem is in place but 
they managed to seal it so well thta there's no IF leakage onto the 
film.
