It's just getting the length on the top/bottom loops that feed/takeup the gate; and the feed reel tension is adjustable... I see a big learning experience ahead.

The simple answer would be no. It's sensitive to red light, you might get away <br>
with it a little but it's probably not worth the risk.<br>
<br>
However I have heard of people using infra red goggles for this sort of thing! <br>
:)<br>

Can you load BW negative<br>
'mopic' film with the assistance of a dim red light?<br>
(Kodak 35mm pan-x.) I have 7 400ft konvas mags to load, and<br>
it won't be pretty in complete darkness or a loading bag<br>
esp. since Im something of a nooby.<br>
