About 13 years ago, I bought an OM2SP for use in an overseas project. The
primary use of the camera was to make presentation slides using the Polaroid
Polachrome "instant" 35mm slide system.
The film was very shiny, and the instructions came with the warning that the use
of OTF metering could result in incorrect exposures. The camera could be used
in manual mode, but OTF readings would be incorrect.

I can sense a request welling up for a listing of the exposure compen-
sation dial settings for most of the currently available films.
Obviously a collaborative effort of list members.
