I held mine under the small finger of my left hand while the thumb of 
that hand held the film cassette in the body.  My right hand tucked the 
leader into the take-up spool and wound on.  First by turning the spool a 
bit, then the wind lever slightly. I found this to be the easiest, 
fastest, surest loading camera ever for me. But, put a motor on it and 
you're screwed.

I traded it for some new AF stuff. I miss it. Now that this comes up I 
want it back.:(
