Brother William, The 165 manual states: "Set the camera's shutter to 1/8 sec. A shutter speed faster than 1/8 sec will not synchronize with the leaf shutter."
Doesn't really say. I suspect that anything slower is ok. All that needs to happen is that the leaf shutter needs enough time to close before the focal plane shutter opens - and then the focal plane shutter needs to stay open while the leaf shutter fires. So anything slower seems like it would work. I set mine to 1/8 anyway.
