Tried your suggestion. When I have that special back on my 645 that lets
one run through the various functions, when the 75mm LS lens is attached,
the camera selects 1/8 sec. You can move the shutter speed off of the
mechanical speeds and then you can use a slower speed, but unless there is
some mystery function I'm am not aware of you can't slow the manual speeds
below 1/8 sec and then use the mechanical shutter speeds.
Thanks anyway,'
