I've done this, but to be sure, advance film and trip shutter while film is in a
changing bag. Also, try not to rewind the film all the way into the cassette.
When rewinding you should be able to tell by feel and by sound when the film has
come off the take-up spool. Rewind just a bit more to get most of the leader in
the cassette, and you shouldn't worry about the thingy to retrieve the leader
from the cassette.

Group,
I keep running into situations where I only have 1 camera body but
want to change film's. I have an OM-10 and I'm thinking that I could
take the following steps:
1) Re-wind the film that is not wanted
2) Put a label on the film to record the last number used
3) When I want to re-load it I could:
- Put lens cap on lens
- Set Manual at a very high shutter speed, 1/1000
- Push shutter release until I get back to the exposure
last
used.
I haven't tried this yet but thought I would sent it out to the group for
feedback and ideas? I would probably want to buy one of those gadgets
that pulls the film leader back out of the cartridge?
Thanks,
Kris
