Tytan Posted August 3, 2017 Share #661 Posted August 3, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Tytan , The film roll is not well mounted in the receiving reel Henry Hi Henry, how are you? Thanks for your reply. When i advance the film, the rewind knob does rotate, but i can also very easily turn the knob in the opposite direction as well with just a soft nudge with a finger .. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share #662 Posted August 3, 2017 Hi Henry, how are you? Thanks for your reply. When i advance the film, the rewind knob does rotate, but i can also very easily turn the knob in the opposite direction as well with just a soft nudge with a finger .. Tytan , when you advance the film (at right) , you must see the knob at left turn in the same time. Is it the case ? Henry Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tytan Posted August 3, 2017 Share #663 Posted August 3, 2017 Tytan , when you advance the film (at right) , you must see the knob at left turn in the same time. Is it the case ? Henry yes, when i advance the film, the knob turns anti-clockwise ... so that tells me the film is advancing fine. but the rewind knob is constantly in a very loose state. after advancing the film, after the rewind knob turns anti-clockwise, it can very easily turn clockwise with just a nudge or swipe of a finger .. it is this that i'm asking if it's normal. thank you. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, this is normal. It partly depends upon the film - some film always seems to want to unwind itself (resulting in a "loose" state rewind knob), some others stay more tightly wound.

HighlandLeica Posted September 11, 2017 Share #679 Posted September 11, 2017 Naturally, I am loving my M7 with the 35mm f/2 Summicron. My efforts are v average and the camera clearly demands we up our game, but it's a v rewarding process. It's just a pleasure to use. Here's one of my son with his Leica Sofort camera earlier this year - shot on Kodak Portra. You have to keep the next generation in with the Leica name! Welcome, dear visitor!
