a third-party add-on someone stuck on it.

into the system to feed the ISO to the meter system.  The m2-3-4 had a metal 
disc with reminder pointer.  The m4-2/p had a grey disc for noting speed 
with a pencil.  Or a sharpie for those die hard TXP or k64 fans. Just stuck 
on on my D3.  Bad idea.  Gets in way of display.  Easy to remember what film 
emulation is set tho

dial to set ISO for the meter.  I always stuck a piece of the film box end 
into the flash shoe as a reminder.

back of at least one of their film cameras but having searched them all I've 
come up with Jack. A plastic one you'd buy in the store I think a lot of 
people did that.

I thank all of you for commenting. 

I decided to do without the film reminder because 1) I shoot only b&w with 
this camera, 2) I use only Ilford film, and 3) the film speed selector is 
plainly visible.
