I just bought a Yashica D, and as is put the first roll of film through it, and i noticed that even at after the knob stops going forward during winding, it can be turned backwards. Is this Normal, if not, an easy fix?

If its anything like my Yashica Mat-124G, basically you are supposed to wind the crank forward til it stops ( if winding properly I think its half a rotation forward each time ), then you rotate back, usually half a rotation til it stops, what happens is, yuo wind forward to advance the film, then you wind back to 'cock' the shutter.

The only time it wouldnt be normal if its something mine where its not doing a half rotation every time in advancement.
