Hi Humberto,
This is EXACTLY what I do except I also stop down to f/22 and cover the
whole camera body up in a jacket or light proof covering like a changing
bag. Works fine, but I always start 1 frame past where I left the roll. I
mark the film can with the frame number to start on also, this helps prevent
double exposures.
HTH,
Chip Louie
