  1. <p>David, I still have a copy of the F-801S, which I bought way back in 1996. The sound that you describe is exactly the same one I heard whenever I started "shooting" with the camera when it had no film. I believe the suggestion that it is related to the automatic advance-to-Frame-1 feature is correct. No need to worry. Get a roll of film in that camera ASAP and experiment with it. It was my most-used camera from the mid-1990s to the mid-2000s for a good reason, especially because it has good ergonomics, a great viewfinder, and great exposure metering. I have a roll of Ektachrome 100 in my fridge which I really should put into my F-801S and go out and use up. Have fun with it. If you put an AF-S lens on your F-801S, however, you will need to manually focus the lens.</p>
