One thing is what happens over time. Another issue is that electronic
shutters are more precise to begin with. A cheap quartz watch is usually
more precise than
Au contraire, mon ami!
With an electronic shutter, the COMPUTER can
adjust it for you. Whether the Super Program
or the ZX-M, or any other.
BUT
Take out your Spot, KX, or MX. (Try LX as well.)
Set the SS for 1 sec. and fire. Easy to time.
Set the SS for 1/2 sec. and fire. The difference

Electronic shutters are (or can be) infinately variable. If the meter calls
for 1/361 sec. that is what you get. Mechanical shutters are set increments
and not usually adjustable.

I'm inclined to think that F5 needs a second quartz to co

Well, if you use the camera long enough, you have every c
Hi,
I'm not an engineer or electrician or in any way mechanical (or
electric), BUT, the electronic bits of an electronic shutter still
have to move the actual shutter mechanism itself, I'd have thought,
and they are presumably subject to wear and tear. I guess that the
electronic parts of the sys
