The same thing has happened on my 1n, had changed the
screen and put the camera away. When I tried to load
film a few days later the camera wound and fired once
fine then on the 2nd blank shot it made a wee funny
sound, (that was the screen fame springing back
down)then wouldn't work right, took me a while to find
the problem.     John Robison
