According to the Kodak Professional Photoguide, as well as 
numerous sources on the 'net, including mailing lists that feature 
cameras with leaf shutters, high shutter speeds used in conjunction 
with smaller apertures produce slower effective shutter speeds, 
producing more exposure than the indicated shutter speed/f-stop 
combination.  This is caused, according to Kodak, "by the geometry 
of the lens-shutter-diaphragm assembly combined with inertia of 
moving parts, and is not a manufacturing defect."
