But adding a flash sync of, say, a 250th - or even > a 125th, adding a shutter with a top speed of a 4000th - or even a 2000th... increasing the top speed would have been very compelling to me, since i do regularly use an ND filter (heliopan slim multicoated) to shoot the apertures i want. i have read and do recognize that increasing the speed beyond 1/1000 would have required certain technical compromises which may or may not have been worth the extra speed. the other thing would be to turn the shutter dial back around the right way! :-) the on-off switch is the best thing about the 7. spinning my 6-classic dials to "B" to turn them off and back is the worst thing about using them. - -rei - -- Rei Shinozuka shino@panix.com Ridgewood, New Jersey - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
