The sound of a Pentax 6X7 firing is a wondrous thing. All that noise starts
in advance of the image actually being made. It might be possible that your
subjects are experiencing a reflex (no pun intended) response to the camera
firing and blink at the decisive moment. Try using mirror lock up (MLU) (if
you have it)

Subject: blinking eyes with Pentax 6x7
I have a problem in my portraits: blinking eyes. I shoot in my mini studio
using a strobe & flashes. The camera is pentax 6x7 with flash synchro speed
of 1/30. Why do I always get these blinking eyes? It has to be a
multifactorial cause, the relatively long exposure time (1/30) & the
strobefiring duration.
What is the solution? Do you think I can use the FP mode with the strobe ata
higher shutter speed (1/60)?
I'm desperate!
