Ignore them! I'm obviously the only voice of sanity here! Hey, I resemble that remark -- I'm one of those thronged users! Put the leader through the post, flip down the back and guide it gently as you're advancing the film slowly onto the sprockets (shouldn't take more than a single advance), and box it up! Just to satisfy my own curiosity, I'm going to try your (Mark's) method. I admit I've never tried any other way, since this works quickly and eaisly. Maybe I've loaded a IIIf a few too many times! - --Andrew no archive
