My EOS 5 doesn't have that facility, but there is
actually a camera that does that. When a partially
exposed film is reloaded, it is automatically advanced
to the selected frame, preventing light from entering
and avoiding double imprinting. It saves a lot of
considerable time, not having to fire away to your
desired frame number. It's called the Minolta Dynax 9.
