Problem with my Rebel G

Posted: January 21, 2006 - 2:47pm

Hey everyone, I have a problem that I have had no luck trying to fix.

I've had my Rebel G for a few years now and have had the problem ever since the warranty ran out on the camera. Basically what's happening is that the camera is rewinding the film after I take like 2 pictures and wasting the rest of the roll. Is their something I can check to fix this? I would rather not bring it anywhere because it's not really worth it. I'm in the market for a DSLR anyway, but I kinda want to keep this camera around. So if anyone has any suggestions or comments, that would be great, thanks!!

The only thing that I can think of is to clean the contacts in the film canister area that reads the iso, roll length and other film info. If the problem has happened on only one roll the info patch on the canister may be at fault.
