Another tidbit, re: the XA3 - the DX coding is convenient but can be overridden. Tape over the silver bars on the film cannister and set the ASA to whatever you choose on the camera. Works very well for getting your personal EI or for guesstimating your own exposures in difficult circumstances - spotlighted stages, backlighting where the built-in 1.5 compensation setting isn't quite what you want. Also great if you bulk load film.
