Thank you, Bob... Yes, this applies to any body with a max of 1/1000, and, yes, the speed of the film is a critical matter. For instance, when I use 400 speed film, I find that I rarely, if ever, need anything above 1/1000. I am interested, though, to ascertain whether or not I would find myself particularly limited when using 100 speed film (which is the lowest I go). I would perhaps like to invest more in earlier bodies and lenses, but before doing so, I would like to have some more feedback with regard to the matter of speed...and, before I forget, I suppose the light gathering capability of one's lens would be a factor, too.
