One, turn the rewind lever to R, but you also had to keep the shutter button depressed? I have a Leica 1a with mushroom button, serial number 14222. To rewind the film, this camera needs its shutter button to be pressed down, and the rewind lever turned to R. Is there any record of such instructions? My second 1a, with serial number 32791 (18 thousand and 5 hundred cameras later!) doesn't have this restriction of needing the shutter button to be pressed while rewinding. Regards, Vick Ko
