RE: Eclair Cameras: ACL 1.5 motor vs. 2 motor

[Michael Welle <mwelle@starband.net>]

I suppose that when I am inching the knob, it allows (as you say) the 
claws to find the sprocket holes, thus eliminating the noise I would 
have otherwise heard had I not inched it properly.  In other words, 
maybe when the sprocket holes are engaged correctly that is when I hear 
the least noise coming from my camera.

Anyway, I've run a lot of film through my camera, and I haven't had any 
problems with it.  I'll be sending it off to get overhauled in the near 
future anyway.

Thanks
