I want to try Kodak HIE (I have a few rolls left) with uncoated lenses. I think it might be impossible to load the film in complete darkness - a requirement - into a screw mount or M-mount Leica. The alternative would seem to be some sort of adapter to allow Leica lenses to be fitted to a SLR but I understand that these only exist in association with the Visoflex and so one is limited to close-focusing and/or longer focal length lenses.

- any ideas?
