But, but...Leica!
I have a lot of respect for Leica, but it is amusing reading leicaphiles explaining that it’s no big deal to pre-trim the leader on all thier film rolls so when they’re out the can “quickly” change rolls.
On the other end, I find it amusing all the effort that went into trying to make loading film easier, which basically amounted to automating the “push the leader into the takeup reel” part of the process. I’ve found those efforts less than perfectly reliable. Several times my F4 didn’t catch the leader, and didn’t advance the film, the Canonet has been reliable but has this big flap that actually makes it harder for me because I can’t see if the sprocket holes are lined up.
