Radost Posted February 27 Share #1 Posted February 27 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, I purchased an m3 that has no stop in the winder. Is this normal? The winder on dual stroke keeps “winding” moving the lever after 2 strokes. The left one is working one. The right one is the one which the lever keeps moving. The film is not winding. Just the lever. Edited February 27 by Radost Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

250swb Posted February 27 Share #2 Posted February 27 I’d assume from that description that it doesn’t work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the DS. I was so anti m3 because of how it looks but once you look through the viewfinder and open both eyes it is devine! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
