Hello:
Two months ago I bought a Rolleicord IV, the
III and IV are similar to load the film, despite the
IV has the advance film mechanism interlocked with the
shutter. These cameras don't have the sensor mechanism
that you find in the Rolleiflex cameras and then it's
necessary to be careful aligning the film paper back
arrows with the red dots in the camera body film gate.
I suggest you control that the initial film tonge is
fitted right into the upper spool, it's necessary to
assure that the film rolls maintaininig identical
distance with regard to each upper spool edges,it's
very important that when the film arrows are aligned
with the red dots in the camera body the film from the
lower spool to the upper spool is tight, you can
obtain it holding the lower spool slightly and turning
the film transport wheel (it's necessary to avoid film
curls, but also it's necessary to avoid a film
tightened too much).
All the best
Carlos
