[Leica] Anyone had this R7 problem

[douglas.sharp at gmx.de (Douglas Sharp)]

Once or twice, but only with a motor or winder attached.

Sometimes the lever on the bottom can be knocked to the two dots 
position when you take your camera out of your bag. This disengages the 
film sprocket.

Cheers
Douglas
