I've seen one SLR with a leaf shutter in which the back of the mirror itself _was_ that flap (i.e. there wasn't a separate piece to lift after the mirror moved). Don't recall who made it. -- Glenn, approx. 937 messages backlogged, but spot-checking latest arrivals now and then - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
