Actually with print film you can miss by a mile and still get a decent print from it ( a mile to me is a stop ) with slide film miss by 1/3 a stop and your screwed. Colour print has reached a point where unless you study the negs you won't really know if your exposure is off, the mini labs always make that perfect print for you.
