One reason that in numerous cameras the film counter goes beyond 36 because
many people do...or used to...wind their own film and loaded more than the
standard thirty-six (well, thirty-eight, actually, depending on the number
of blanks you wind off) exposures.

I've seen there is a 40 marking on my M6 TTL film counter, but I can reach
that because all the films on the market is 36-exposure. It also stops at 38
even no film loaded. Is that a problem of my M6 TTL? If no, what is the 40
marking for?

Thanks
