Hi everyone,

I'd like to test a 24-exposure roll of film on a Canon EF by taking film by the meter onto an empty roll.

The only thing I need to be careful about to avoid problems is making sure the film tab matches the one the factory generates on commercially available rolls of film exactly. Otherwise, the camera might not accept it and give an error when loading.

Are there any other things you need to be careful about with these "homemade" rolls of film to avoid problems?

I'll test it on a Canon 1000Nf
