I have a Rolleicord 1a (II) that is giving me trouble. The first roll I loaded, everything worked great! But after that, it refused to stop on each frame; it just keeps going. Does anyone know if I am doing something wrong or if there is something wrong with the camera, itself? And, if so, what??

Hi Andy,
Did you reset the counter? After 12 it keeps on going to allow you to wind the film to the end.
Once you have placed a new film in and have set that at the first frame, you need to reset the counter. This is done by simultaneously pressing the button in the film advance knob, and pulling the little silver button to the bottom side of the camera. You should see the frame counter go back to 1. When you advance the film, it should stop at each frame.
