> Cec's guaranteed method for loading any Magic Noodle camera:
> Open the camera back.
> Take the film cartridge in the left hand, with the film between
> thumb and forefinger.
> Hold the camera in such a way that the right thumb is holding
> the take-up spool steady.
> Insert the film between two of the Magic Noodles. It is easier
> if you choose noodles that are on the shutter side of the
> take-up spool. Be sure to hold the film cartridge and fingers
> well away from the shutter.
> Turn the take up spool about a half turn in the direction of
> take-up with the right thumb to engage the film on the
> sprockets.
> Finally, put the film cartridge into the camera. Turn the rewind
> crank to take up slack on the film, ensure that the cassette is
> located properly and that the film is correctly engaged on the
> sprockets.
> Close the back and advance to frame 1.
> I learned this method about 30 years ago from the fellow that
> started me in wedding photography. I have yet to find a better
> method of loading a camera.
> Yer welcome
