Grabbed the new camera and loaded it with fil and went to take a few shots of my daughter today.
Push the shutter and nothing...change some settings and try again...nothing.
So I figure the batteries are too low so I switch them out and ...yep nothing.
So at this point I am getting worried I am going to have to go and take it back due to malfunction of some sort. To avoid this I break out the manual to make sure I didn't miss something along the way. Nope it's all good according to the manual. so I remove the film back and test fire it a few times in a blacked out room and it works fine without the film back in it...hmmm.
Finally I wound the film out and pull it out and examine how I loaded it and sure enough I put the film in backwards so that it was starting on the takeup reel instead of the start reel
