Ok thanks for your advice. What really confuses me is that when there is no film loaded the lever returns as it should. It’s only when film is in the camera that it doesn’t spring back.

Hi I just recently began shooting film with a Fujica ST701. For the first two rolls of film I put through it every time I advanced the film the lever would spring back to the starting position. However after loading a new roll of film when I advance it the lever does not spring back like previously. I carefully rewound the film to ensure that it wasn’t exposed and that I didn’t rewind it all the way into the canister to check and make sure everything was alright and nothing was broken. After removing the film the advance lever would spring back to the start position as it is supposed to so I reloaded the film thinking maybe I had loaded it incorrectly but again after loading it the advance lever would not spring back. I did this a few times and every time I took the film out the lever would spring back but when I loaded the film it would not. When the film is loaded I can move the advance lever back to the start manually without much resistance but I’m concerned using it in this manner may damage the camera. My question is would I be alright using the camera in this manner? Has anyone else had a similar issue? I’m wondering if maybe there is an issue with the film that would cause this I honestly have no idea so if anyone has had a similar experience or any suggestions for what may be causing this I’m all ears.
