Hello Christopher,
thanks for the prompt anwser.
I compared the DX code of 100 ASA slide vs. print film. It showed that
different brands of slide film had the same code, but the print film didn´t.

This list is always good for some surprising informations (at least for
me), so Morgan and Christopher enriched my knowledge.
I always thought, that camera meters can not distinguish between slide
and print film. Once "foto Magazin" (it´s spelled like that) explained the
tendency of some EOS models to overexpose, with the dominant use of
print film (in contrary to slides, print film will produce better
exposures, if slightly overexposed than underexposed).
Obviously there explaination was just white washing (strong overexposure
will do it also ;-).
Regards
Richard
