For booths without the budgets for frame counters, an old sprocket, mounted on a 6" handle (available from Home Depot) works fine. File two lines across the top of the sprocket & you've got a frame finder.

Can anyone post a picture of one of these?

we have one of those but i don't use it. there's nothing to keep it from jumping a sprocket. i'd prefer to visually compare with another strip of film with clear framelines.
