I roll my own and prefer not to have to trim. The key is to ease the film cassette in slightly ahead of the take-up spool and to manipulate the cassette so that the film bulges toward the back of the camera body. My iii and iiib are somewhat more difficult and i do trim the leaders before loading film in these cameras. FWIW Damian - -- http://www.teleport.com/~damian/strings.htm
