I don't really see what "debunking" needs to be done - no one has ever claimed that the shutter vibration is a problem at all times, under all conditions, only that the massive shutter of the 67 can cause problems at certain shutter speeds with long lenses *if certain precautions aren't taken* (sufficient tripod and head - which some people new to the 67 system underestimate). Reichmann's site shows the issue clearly and then specifically shows how it can be totally eliminated with the correct set-up. You don't really need to duplicate his efforts. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
