Yes Allan, it happened to me last November with the Ektar film too, it
never had happened with a Kodak film from I have memory. I had used
the last Ektar film from two I had carried to the Patagonia and needed
to load the 3.5F with the Ektachrome slide film, I already was in the
shelter at 2600m; I couldn't believe the film had no tape to secure
it, I also looked at the camera and other places and there was no
tape, I finally used a sticking plaster to secure the exposed film, it
was an uncomfortable and surprising situation indeed.
