In Reply to: overiding DX settings posted by wb perry on January 30, 2000 at 20:58:21:

: Can someone tell me if it is possible to overide the automatic film setting on the Nikon 35TI. I roll my film from bulk and use a lot of B&W (Technical Pan) film and of course the cannisters have no DX code, so the TI defaults to ISO 100 setting. This is to fast for my need unless I develop the film in Ethol, or some other such chemical. Thanks for any answer that someone may care to provide...WBP

If your camera doesn't allow you to manually set the film speed, the only other choice is to fool the camera. Seems I saw in a catalog some stick on DX-code labels for people who use bulk film loaders. The labels duplicate the DX-coding found on film cassettes. You might try Porter's Camera Store - they have almost everything. You'll find Porter's in our mail order index as "America's Best Camera Store." See the hyperlink below.
