Am I the only one who can't understand why on earth Rollei doesn't label their roll film 'exposed' seals properly ?
I had another one of their rolls come in for processing with zero information - apart from 'Rollei' and 'Exposed' printed on the label ( I had to contact the customer to find out what he'd sent ).

Doesn't Rollei believe it's important enough ? ... especially with the risk of going through the wrong process.
It turned out to be a CR200 ( E-6 ) colour reversal film.

perhaps they would have to order an inordinate amount of labels for each different type.

I discovered this the hard way about ten years ago. I had to load the film into the tank so that I could read the beginning of the paper. I have stopped using Rollei film except for the Rollei IR 400, that means that the only Rollei film that I can have can only be the IR 400 film.
