Fuji Discovery S1450 zoom won't advance film


My fuji S1450 has all of a sudden stopped loading the film, although it sounds as though it has. It seems like its never picking it up on the spool & I know it's being pulled far enough across. Everything else is still working fine, flash, shutter, zoom.... please give me some suggestions. thanks.

  i have same problem with my fujica st801, a camera that I love...i love the size, the optics, the incomparable metering. BUT, I hate the film advance problem. it's downright maddening...both the problem and the apparent inability for anyone local to venture a fix. I have been told "throw it out." AArrgghhh...Chris camera.com will fix it for over $150, plus shipping. good luck!!
