I think I'm going to need some type of winding device since I'm use to shooting with an SLR with built in winder. I am also considering a Rapidwinder although it's a manual advance I like the idea that it's quiet. The main focus in a winder for me is to be able to keep my eye in the viewfinder and my finger on the shutter not for speed. I use to be a right eye shooter but have a slight astigmatism so switched to my left eye years ago. Now I think I'm stuck there :) this also causes me to move the camera that has a manual film advance lever to wind past my cheek. - -- John Chicago, IL http://SlideOne.com ==================== - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
