Has anyone had the problem with their Polaroid 545 back not releasing the film for non-processing? When there's no film in it and I press the R button, the little clip goes down fine, but, when there's film in it and I want to remove it without processing, it doesn't work and I wind up having to pull the film and pod out......very carefully. Seems like a while back I remember having a problem with a Polaroid back that I had to manualy bend up the metal strip a little to get it to catch......this however is just the opposite and I'm not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I come back here very red faced. Since I'd never had this happen before with a sheet of film, I tried another sheet and it came out perfectly. So I can only assume that it was either a fluke, or.....here's where the red face comes in.......I may have loaded the film in with the wrong side facing the lens. Maybe instead of just saying "this side facing lens".......it should say in bold red....."this way stupid".
