Perfidy.  (adv) The fiddly nuisance of trying to get the sproket wheel 
to correctly engage the film perforations, especially on an LTM camera.

Ex.: "Damn, loading this IIIc with mittens during the Swedish winter is 
perfidy awful!"


Perfidity. (a) The quality of a perfidy task.

Ex.: "I loved that II, but it's perfidity loading drove me crazy."
