Both rolls were shot on a Canon EOS300 - not a particularly 'cheap'
camera (although some professionals on here may disagree with that ;-).
Obviously, since the same camera was used for both it *must* be the film
that differs. 

I think the uneven-spaced frames were from some cheap Agfa film which we
bought from a SnappySnaps or something whilst on holiday last year. It
certainly is a real pain to scan, though - I will be sticking to
Fuji/Kodak in the future. 

Ed, you say Vuescan doesn't support frame-spacing - any chance you could
add in some funky functionality to automatically adjust the frame offset
after previewing each frame to kindof simulate adjustable frame-spacing?
Just a thought, anyway. ;-)

Thanks
