Now I am trying to think of other applications for a DSLR avec leaf
shutter up
front. Suggestions? ;)
Well, to get access to electronic flash at high shutter speeds,
mainly. If one wants to use fill flash outdoors in sunlight (to raise
shadow values) without ND filters, 1/500 sec was (is) often needed,
and the FP shutters just couldn´t do it.
Many medium format cameras with FP shutters had special lenses with
leaf shutters in them for just this purpose; I owned one for my old
Rollei SL66. And Hasselblad allowed the use of C (or CF) lenses on F
bodies, so one could choose which shutter to use.
Second-curtain sync, however, was nothing one could get without
special equipment.
(C´mon, Andy, you´re trolling us.... Surely you knew all this
already?....;-) )
