If you're ok using stop-down metering, have mirror lockup in your SLR body, and 1/500 is fast enough for you, you can put a Pentax 67 90mm F2.8 leaf shutter on your lens today! A truly integrated leaf-shutter lens would support open-aperture metering, automatically cock the shutter between shots, and have automatic communication between the leaf shutter, camera body, and flash. Doable, but maybe not very profitable for Pentax.... --Mark - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
