Hello Shel, I think at the 5n level, you have little control. There is a tiny button (recessed) that can be pressed to initiate rewind. The film is always wound into the cannister.
On the PZ-1p, you can set the camera to not rewind at film end - essentially you have to manually initiate rewind. You can also set it to lead film leaders out. I believe the MZ-S can do both of these also. -- Best regards, Bruce Friday, July 15, 2005, 10:21:52 AM, you wrote: SB> That begs the question: can you initiate mid-roll rewind?
