Simon and others,
Yeah, I jammed the shutter of my original MP when I was shooting a bike
race using 1/4 or so speeds and got in a little bit of a hurry when
winding on.  At the time I didn't blame my actions as the camera had
been in hard core press use prior to my possession.

I have an M6 I never use, but take it out every few months to click the
shutter a few times at each speed.  Click, wind, click, wind, for each
shutter speed, from the quickest all the way to one second.   At the
slowest settings, once I got into the rythym of it, I could easily have
set
the speed to 1/4, released the shutter, and immediately wound it again.
I
thought about it first and didn't.
