Subject: [Leica] R8 film advance lever

I got to the end of the roll on my new R8 yesterday and noticed (before
rewinding the film) that the film advance lever was loose and without
tension.  I haven't put that many rolls of film through the camera and had
not noticed this before.  My R6's work like other SLR I'm familiar with --
when you get to the end of the roll the lever is essentially firm and
unmovable, letting you know that the film cannot be advanced further. 
Thanks.
