DMeic> Have you noticed that Fuji puts a hole in the paper leader DMeic> which slots into a plastic knob inside their takeup spool? You DMeic> have to shoot two consecutive rolls of Fuji to notice this. It DMeic> makes the loading much easier. I keep switching between Fuji DMeic> and Kodak so I don't often get to take advantage of it :) I have the same problem. I keep switching between Portra and Reala. Maybe Aaron can post one more time what each of the Nxxxxxx films are so I can try them. It's almost funny that loading speed plays a role in choosing film. DMeic> I seem to recall Agfa's system having a nice feature but I don't remember DMeic> now. I rarely shoot Agfa, but I have been keen to try out some Portrait DMeic> 160 in 6x7. In fact I bought a few cheap rolls of it a couple of months DMeic> ago. The cross never caused me any problems though. I just ordered some as well to see what I think of it. I'll let you know. DMeic> I still need to get used to taking the exposed roll out of the Pentax 6x7. DMeic> Maybe I should take a leaf out of Tom's book and just lick the sealing DMeic> strip while its still in the camera. Now there's a good survey: who's DMeic> 120/220 sealing strips taste the best :) >From what I recall, the Fuji is not quite as tasty as the Kodak and I don't really remember the Agfa.
