It takes a few minutes to rewind a 100’ roll with the key, but it is not
the end of the world. I did this recently for a roll I exposed three times
and it turned out nicely. My understanding is that daylight spools actually
have 110’ of film in them to compensate for film lost/exposed during a true
daylight load, so I shot right up to 99 to still be safe.
