Third roll with the Belair, this one came out of the camera very fat, hence the light leaks.

    Me too, but it was my third roll that come out fat, and it was the only non-lomo one (my XPro & redscale rolled up fine).

    Hate to say it but it looks like a design fault. I've sent mine back to Lomography for repair, I hope it performs better when I get it back.. Can't focus at infinity with either lens and fat rolls as there is virtually no tension on the supply spool.

    @realrampage, @lokified and @sedgetone, glad to hear it is not just me. I totally agree it is a design flaw. Tension is non-existent and the film slides off frame all the time. Redscale is the only roll so far that came out tight until I put some weather strip insulating foam in mine, which seems to have somewhat alleviated the problem, still working on getting the thickness exactly right. Jury is still out on focus.

    The 58mm will stay in box as it's unusable, makes my Holga look sharp as a tack.
