It does! How did I miss the blinking frame numbers in the view finder? Damded if I know.... And before anyone says it...."No I didn't have any single malt before the shoot!" :) Just dam stupidity on my part, can I use senility? Might be easier for the old guy. ;) After the shoot, my grandson first time along as an "assistant for the holidays" put the camera in the bag, then I remembered I hadn't taken the roll out. I picked it up, went to set for auto rewind, the multiple switch was over the rewind button indicating multiple exposures only! I set it correctly, pressed to re-wind, the film re-wound instantly indicating the leader and maybe one or two frames. So I gulped hard and began to weep. With the labs closed the film hasn't been souped yet, but I just accepted disaster immediately, it's called, "Manic depressed Welshman" syndrome!:) Inherited from my Welsh mother. No offenxce to any Welshmen on the LUG.:) Anyway lads be kind, as that was last millennium and this is the new one, I swear I'll get all this Leica picture taking thing right after all it's a New Year! :) ted Ted Grant This is Our Work.
