At my last Cascade club meeting, I asked someone who used a VM camera as to
whether it was a problem having to "wait" for *so* many exposures before a
roll of film is completed.  When using cameras of any sort, I usually use
"N + 0.1"  rolls, and that last 0.9 roll has to wait until my next "outing".
Seems that with something like 70 exposures per roll (?), this could be an 
annoyance.  The answer given was "no, it isn't a problem, but I usually take 
multiple exposures of any scene so that I have first-generation duplicates
that I can give away".  Kills two birds with one stone.

Although this segways us back to thread of a few months ago, I take his answer
also to mean "film is cheap, use it".

P.S. - The fellow had VM reels of the recent Portland flood shown in a 
       Model 'D' viewer.  Surprisingly nice!
