Thats what I understand too. And also why the M-[2|3] have a rewind knob instead of the crank every other camera already had. The very first Leica I ever used was a DS M-3, and to this day I have a tendency to DS when I advance the film, if I can. (One of the things that annoys me about the CL.) I really think 2 short strokes is faster than one long stroke. ============================================================================ Ken Firestone, W3CAT | For every problem there is one solution kenf@speakeasy.net | which is simple, neat, and wrong. ken@firestone.net | -- H.
