I had my first roll of film (using Pentax ME Super) developed and I was really excited because I figured I got some good shots, even if I did take them when I was blazed... However, upon reviewing the shots, I noticed, besides the fact that some of them were under-exposed or lacked clarity, all the ones I had framed perfectly before taking the shot now included an extra inch all around the photograph. I was researching and it said that the Super's viewfinder covers only 92% of the field, which means I clearly didn't account for the 8% of the field that obnoxiously ended up on the film.
My question is: how do I combat this issue of focusing and framing an image via the viewfinder and ending up with a larger field of view? Because it is a little hard, especially as I'm only starting out, to have to make accurate assumptions about the field of view

Hey, new to this forum and photography in general. I detached the crank on my Super trying to rewind the film (I ended up losing the film because it broke before it had fully rewound and I couldn't get the rest of the film in, so I just disposed of it... :o) and I was wondering how you reattached it. I tried winding it clockwise, but a few turns the other way detached it again.
