Alright, but that brings up the question how useful it is to keep a product around that's fundamentally flawed. It's a bit like marketing a very cheap car, "but don't take it out onto the highway, because the bonnet will pop off and you may lose a wheel or two." Of course I understand that financial limitations may play a big role in Foma not being able to re-engineer Foma 200 in 120 format so that it actually works reliably. As a company, don't you sometimes have to conclude that something just doesn't fly and that it's perhaps better to not go there? Given how people respond to this, I'd think it makes sense to just discontinue the product. Just look at this thread; half the people are stating that they won't use Foma only because this particular product doesn't work, regardless of the fact that the other products in the lineup don't suffer from this problem. There's a clear spillover effect to their entire brand reputation.
