I've wanted to do this sort of thing myself a few times (mainly when I want
to change to a different speed of film) but what I don't understand is how
you ensure that the positioning of frames doesn't change?
I understand the way to take the film out and put it back in again -- but
say I've used 10 frames the first time, how do I make sure that the spacing
between frame 10 and 11 is the same as that between 9 and 10? If it's not
the same, won't this mess up the printing and end up with frames 11+ being
printed as half of frame 11 and half of frame 12?
