Whenever ASTIA is in this >camera, I stick a little blue Avery label (1/4"circle) just to the right of >the eyepiece on the rear of the camera. This tells me that ASTIA is in the >camera. When the film is taken out, I peel off the label (NO LABEL - NO >FILM IN THE CAMERA). It's hard to make a mistake this way. NOTE: If I >were to use VELVIA in this camera, I would use a green label instead of a >blue one. If B/W film were to be used, I use a yellow label, etc. >M6#2 is chrome because it has a chrome 35 1.4 asph attached (chrome and >chrome looks good!) I normally use ASTIA 100 in this camera also (and affix >the little blue Avery circle near the viewfinder window). >M6#3 is chrome because it carries a chrome 50 2.0. I normally use Scala 200 >in this camera. The yellow Avery sticky is placed near the eyepiece. > <All kinds of interesting details on cobblers snipped> ;-) Real designer label stuff, this! New colour co-ordinations for Hermes? But I'll never get the hang of it - perhaps if I read it again very, very sloooowly ;-) Nick ;-)
