Emne: Re: DX coding and canister capacity


Okay, but let me ask...what do you do (assuming mechanical, or more to
the point, "not digital" cameras,) with the frame counter? Even if it
DID go around twice, there will be confusion when you pass the S or
start place, and the couple of empty frames before the 1 shows.
Then there's the potential problem with bodies that have a built in lock
or other sensor...

Pop another Elephant beer!  <g>
