I used a thin red tape on the back of one M camera that indicated the colour camera and it was always 100 if working out doors and high speed as necessary for working indoors. And there wasn't any need to indicate the indoor colour simply because as soon as the shoot was done all cameras were emptied and that was that until the next shoot. The torn off end works best jammed into to the hot shoe as the simplest answer to this situation. Then yer not sticky things all over the camera. Never mind putting it on the base plate because you might change base plates in a hurry some day. ted Ted Grant Photography Limited 1817 Feltham Road Victoria BC V8N 2A4 250-477-2156
