I'm getting the hang of it - this time all the photos worked out, save there was frame overlap with the final two.

Thanks - this is the 'miniature' Graflex SLR - it takes 120 film and is smaller than a lunch box. But there are about 6 or 7 steps to getting the camera ready to take the next picture. You have to flip the mirror back yourself first, before doing anything else. Focusing isn't too difficult - there's a pop up magnifier - but you have to open the lens manually, and then put it back to shooting aperture yourself.
