Hello.
Some users note's, that using movie film (like Kodak Vision, or Fujifilm Eterna) in this camera leads to a breakdown of the film transportation mechanism. Do you have a similar experience or what do you think about it?

Great review! Only comment is that the 28 20 14 are not for the self-timer. Rather, they are the flash guide numbers for using a non-auto-sync flash. For ASA 100 film, you set the shutter to 1/30 seconds and then the 28 is for 28 meters away, 20 meters away, and 14 meters away.

I have seen a lot of cameras from this period. Yashica and Konica. One common issue, mostly Konica is the wire corrodes off the battery compartment and the light meter will stop working. You can usually pull off the bottom plate by removing screws, and find a lose wire. Would be curios if this is the case with your camera.

Aside from metering, do you need batteries to operate?

I have this camera but it's on S and when i'm opening the door i can pull it back but when i close it, it doesn't. Sometimes it works and makes a noice by itself. Is this because the battery is almost dead? I don't get it. It's the canonet QL19G-IIIGL 45MM. I really love the feel but i want to be able to get it to work.

This is a pain to disassemble and clean, but definitely a great built quality, I just wished they didn't design it to stop people from going inside the camera, the shutter mechanism is a huge block.
