I agree, the loading for M2's and M3's is not that bad once you get the
routine down. This fall I have been working on a project for NFL Films
shooting NFL Films 16mm cameramen on the sidelines. I have used for each
game two M2's and a M3. Rapid shooting is the game here, so, shoot off the
three cameras, quickly reload all three, shoot, reload, shoot, reload....and
sometimes do it while running. Yes I suppose a rapid load would be good but
during the games I never even thought about it.
