It's possible to have uneven focus at the end of film strips when using
the motorised feeder.

Actually I don't think this is true. The motorised feeder curls the film
strip inside the feeder to get to the end frame - especially with a 6 frame
strip. I've dismantled the feeder, and I believe it's possible for the
mechanism to touch the film where it curls it around. Others have mentioned
scratches with the motorised feeder. FWIW I don't think it's ever damaged
any of my film.
