Thanks for the reply. In fact, as I said I measured the film speeds the camera can detect with a notch ruler, and according to it, the camera detect 25/40ASA and 40/64 ASA (d/t). So this should be correct, shouldn't it ? Then I guessed that the third film speed oughta be 64/100 ASA (d/t) but now I realized that it could well be 100/160ASA too, and I don't know how to find out which is this last film speed.
What's more, I cannot understand why the camera wouldn't work with Ekta 64T since I measured with the notch ruler that it detects films with 40/64 ASA. Don't forget I'm talking about Eumigette "2". Even if it may sound strange, it has not many things in common with Eumigette "1", the notch can be different. As you can see, the notch onmy Eumigette 2 has two positions, which means there are 3 in total. So there must be a third speed (and not only 40 and 160 as the article says). I guess the best solution would be to read the manual but I can't get hold of it. Would anyone here have it ?
Lastly, the reason why there is credit to me on this site is because I contacted the owner with this information, asking him from where he got it. He relied on my deductions, among which the last (the 64/100 ASA speed) could be wrong.
I hope this reply is not too long :-)
PS: Here are the proofs ! You can see the notch has two steps, plus a third position when it isn't engaged.
