Not predictable?
There's just one sensor in a DSLR, fixed in its place, so it seems to be
much easier to "predict" it's reflectivity, compared to a film camera,
with so many different possible film surfaces, with possible variation
of alignment.
I remeber a website (by a PDMLer, I believe) showing exactly this
problem - variation of reflectivity of different types of film.
There it is:

I am quite happy with DS performance with a (non-P)TTL flash - I have
been using an AF280T, and several Metz units (32 series and recently
40MZ3i). Flash compensation works as it should, the only anoying thing
being the number of clicks to get to it in the menu.
