| Oct 10, 2017 at 7:59 | comment | added | Gerhardh | I've heard of some old cameras with some kind of panorama format. Does the camera take 24*36mm images or some wider format? Maybe adding the camera type could be useful. | |

If the gap between frames is variable, this leads me to believe that something is going on with the film advance. Low batteries maybe? Damage? | |

| Oct 10, 2017 at 1:57 | comment | added | onacosmicscale | The teacher may have burned a few frames to demonstrate the camera's operation, possibly to show her how to tell if the film is advancing or some other function. What's on the first few exposed frames? | |

| Oct 10, 2017 at 0:10 | comment | added | Michael C | When you look at the negatives, are there large gaps between each frame? There should only be about 3mm between successive frames and the numbers on the edge of the film should line up in the same spot for each successive frame. | |
