The fastest shutter speed is 1/1000 (flash sync at 1/100). The single biggest drawback of these bodies is that there is no film speed override, or manual film speed setting - you have to use DX coded film canisters. The bodies do have exposure compensation, in case you want to rate film at something other than the manufacturer's rating. -- John Francis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Silicon Graphics, Inc.
