Noblex 150 spacing problems

[Willem-Jan Markerink <w.j.markerink@xxxxx>]

Dear Gang,

For those with inconsistent/too-large frame spacing in the Noblex
150, I just read on the Dutch newsgroup that some have found
inconsistencies in spool width when switching from brand to brand,
by loading one after the other....to the point that a too small film
on a too wide spool allows light leakage, and very tight film
winding vice versa.
(sample given was Ilford vs Fuji NPH)

Since the 120 system relies on alternating/switching spools, this 
might be a good explanation for the Noblex spacing problem....
Try to remember what film that old spool was used for, and whether it 
differs with the one you are loading next....or try a few same-brand 
sequences to proof that the camera itself is not the problem.
