Let me second the careful on the rewind knob.
I was on a bus in El Salvador last summer, loading a roll of film, and to make
sure it was on the takeup spool I tightened the rewind knob a little too
tightly.  I ended up rewinding the lead back into the cassette.  Thankfully, I
had a lead puller in my camera bag.
