Steph, you need to trim the leader. The part that is cut out of the
leader is not enough for the IIIf camera. Take a scissor and continue
the cut another 1.5 inch with a smooth curve out to the sprockets, then
the film will load easily, or more easily. So in other words, instead of
having about 1.5 inch of the leader being about half the films width,
you will have about 3 in.
