I believe that little orange barred gizmo whirls around as you advance the film to let
you know your film is actually moving onto the take up spool....kind of a built in
insurance policy against mis-loaded film.
I'm glad you like the ME Super, it is a great little. Like you, I've owned my share of
Pentax cameras including both the MG and ME Super. I loved my ME Super as well but
unfortunately the shutter died on me and the repair cost was almost as much as I could
pick up a "new" one off of eBay.......
Damn, now I'm feeling enabled..........
