I tried to redo, but of course, did not feel like the "redone" photos were as good as the ones I lost. I've had the camera 2 months, and have had this problem in 1 other shoot. The question: Is loading these cameras always hard, and do you just have to be careful, or is there a "trick" I am missing. I never had this prob. with my Nikon F. Do you just have to stop shooting for 3 minutes and audit the advancement of the film by watching the rewind crank????? Second topic. After getting over the sticker shock for my new M-6 TTL, 1.4 Lux 50 mm, Neverready case, and flash, I was looking to save some $$ on a wide angle - after a lot of agonizing and advice from this list, I got the 1.9 28 MM Voigtlander from aaacamera.com and it appears to have performed very well, with a delivered cost of about $450. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
