Hello to all, I am a new member and this is my first post. I have a M3 but dont know if it's a single or double stroke. Please can someone tell me the difference between them and how to identify.
Whether it is a single or double stroke depends on whether it requires one or two full strokes of the film advance lever to advance the film to the next frame (and cock the shutter).
Welcome, Fidanzati. Whether DS or SS, the M3 is a fine machine. What lenses do you use with it?

Welcome..
A double stroke will take 2 short strokes of the advance lever to advance and cock the shutter.
