And the F5 doesn't automatically rewind when the film ends. You have to push 2 buttons to get the camera to rewind it or push one button to rewind it manually, just trying to get the facts right. To make this Leica specific I use the M6 with the 35 and 50 Summicrons, am saving for a 90. Regards, TC
