I just had the experience of loading a manual camera with conventional take-up spool (a Voigtl�nder Bessa-R if you want to know) and IMHO the magic needle system is 1) a lot easier and 2) more reliable. In my 22 years of experience of the magic needle system I have misloaded only once, with LX. And with the winder attached to ME it seems to really grasp the film end very tight. All the best!
