I received my M Motor today (and the SF-20 ;-)...it works, probably as it
should...but BLECK!  It forces the shutter button back up and keeps on
firing if you keep pressure on it.  Now I know what people were talking
about.  If you are considering one of these, I suggest you check this out by
holding pressure on the shutter button while manually winding the
camera...it'll push the button back up during the winding.

One of the things I do when taking a picture is slowly push the shutter
button down and then hold it down after taking the picture all in one smooth
action, decreasing camera jitter for low light situations.  If I want to use
this "thing", it's going to take some technique adjustment!
