A simple, but skill requiring method of leaving the leader out on the
F5 is to release your finger from rewind button 2 ( the one on the
left top plate) as the film gets to the end. I have tried this and
find I can be quite precise. However, I still think it is easier to
use my Ilford film retriever thingy- it only takes 10 seconds to get
the leader out using this.
