I did that in the bag I had in between my old one and my current 
backpack.  It won't fit sideways in my backpack, unfortunately.

I always wind the film on, because I'm certain to forget to wind and 
miss a shot if I don't. ;)

I also always carry a spare 4SR44 battery.  In fact, I have one in each 
different bag I use, as well as a pair of spare SR44s for my LX and ME 
Super.

Sounds like the standard screen.  It's a gem, isn't it?

You're shooting with a waist level finder, not a prism, right?  The 
prism is good, but it's shocking how much light it eats (but I suppose 
all prisms are like that).  Still, the view through it is great.
