Hi,

yes, as far as I remember that's the main and only purpose to imprint by light the data to the shot.

It seems to add a lot of extra bulk for a feature that in 2018 is kind of redundant. You agree?

Most people didn't need this function in the 70's , even less need it now .

It's really intended for scientific purposes where dates or codes needed to be recorded on the negative to identify each shot .
