Hi! I have a pentax zx-50 that I've had almost nine years now. I've used it off and on and since we just had a new baby I wanted to whip it out and take some really nice photo's of him. Well I changed the batteries, I put new film in, and then turned it on. As soon as I turned on the power it said it had taken 2 photo's. I then tried to change the camera mode, and it said I had taken 3 photo's. I then tried to zoom, which it wouldnt, and it said it had taken another photo. Every time I push any button on the camera, it says the film has advanced. I played with it for a while, and before I knew it, I had gone through 3 rolls of film just trying to get it to work. I REALLY want this camera to work, I just dont have money to take it to a repair shop so if anyone has any suggestions or advice I'd love it! Thanks!
