You could mark the sprocket hole that you want to start on the spindle on the left side of the camera. You won't get anything like perfect registration however. Unfortunately there is no easy way to keep the ZX/MZ series of cameras from rewinding the leader into the canister. That is except for the MZ-S.

I'm going to be taking a photography class where we will be doing double 
exposures.  Specifically we are going to be shooting all of our rolls of film 
the first night, and then re-expose the film on subsequent nights.  I have a 
ZX-50 and I have two issues.  First, I need to know how to keep the film from 
rewinding completely into the canister since I will have to load it at a later 
time.  Second, I need to know how I should re-align the film when reloading it 
the second time.  The instructions for the class recommend disabling the 
autoloader.  Is there a way to do that?

Thanks everyone for your help.
