Also, be very sure to cock the leaf shutter each time. That is the one weakness to that particular lens design (no indicator that the shutter is cocked). I have several ruined shots because I wound the film (cocked the focal plane shutter and then forgot to cock the leaf shutter. Results in a shot taken at 1/8 sec.
But it is very cool to be able to flash synch at any speed up to 1/500 sec. -- Best regards, Bruce Saturday, April 30, 2005, 6:53:09 PM, you wrote: WR> ----- Original Message ----- WR> From: "Cesar" WR> Subject: Re: The brotherhood, and then some. >>I had to download a manual to figure out the leaf shutter aspect.
