In order to simplify the handling of 35 mm film in 135 format Kodak introduced the DX encoding method on 3 January 1983.<ref name="Kodak_1983_Press1"/><ref name="Kodak_1983_Press2"/> In contrast to former solutions like [[Fuji (company)|Fuji]]'s [[film speed]] encoding method in 1977,<ref name="Fuji_Patent_4024557"/> which was already using electrical contacts for film speed detection on 135 format cartridges,<ref name="AP_1977_Fuji"/> Kodak's later DX code system immediately met success in the marketplace.
