Harald,
This is set via Pentax Function 12 - setting the function to
[1]...Rewinds the film completely
[2]...Leaves out the film leader
[3]...Leaves out the film leader and enables MRC [Mid Roll
Change] frame advance
When using number three, before loading the partially used roll you
turn the select dial to the exposure number desired. Then when the roll is
loaded it will advance to the indicated exposure number.
Hope this helps,
