In 22 years of using Olympus OTF metering, the ONLY film I have had
noticable exposure problems with is the Polaroid instant slide film. This
film is very dark -- almost black.

It's a pain in the butt to compensate for, because you need the
compensation progressively more as the shutter speed goes below 1/60th,
which is the point at which (if I remember my calculus) half the exposure
comes from the curtain, and half from the film.

In the case of the Polaroid film, I simply kept my shooting above 1/120th.
