You don't rewind the film. There are two options: 1 - you can use an empty film cassette that receives the exposed film and at the end you cut the film (watch out for the last one or two photos). 2 - Or you don't use the cassette, only the interior and at the end you use a changing bag to rewind manually the film. I use this second option as I don't want the film to pass 4 times through the 35mm cassette tissue. This way the film only passes 2 times through the tissue, the same as 35mm cameras, X-Pan and Mamiya 7 (great camera). For some this can be a disadvantage but, for my type of photography, it isn't. That is why I have a second 6x7 body for the X-Pan kit.
