Do rewinding slowly. Then you can feel sudden drop in the tension of rewinding button. Do about one more turn, and the result will be perfect. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Hi Artorius,

Welcome to the forum !

Are you not happy with digital any longer?

I just got my first prosumer digital about two weeks ago.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I am VERY happy with digital (I am a working pro and that is all I use). I just needed to get back to film for my own use. I sold my Nikon F5 last year, and I was still craving film, so I bought an M3 and a Summicron F/2 DR. I had a pair of M3 kits when I was in the Navy, and sold them in the 80's. :bang: Anyway I really missed the build and quality of this fine camera, so I bought myself one as a gift to me.

I use the exposed film leader to write my notes and film number on - as there is never enough room on the canister itself - that way its easy to tell which one i've exposed and not.
