I've been using the 164/4 for outdoor portraiture. It's a great lens and
quite easy to use. You simply set the camera shutter speed at 1/8
second, then set the leaf shutter as required. Like any leaf shutter,
the shutter must be cocked for each shot. Of course you can't use TTL
metering, since the

Since it is quiet on the list, I thought I would make a comment. Based
on the last couple of times I have used the 67 for some outdoor
portraits, I have been dealing with sun and shadows. With my old
PZ-1p's or my MZ-S's I would simply put on the flash and use the
relatively high flash synch to d
spotmatics and K bodies.
Hmmm... ?? Didn't Topcon SLR's use leaf shutters? I realize that
doesn't help you with your Pentax bodies; but if you would like to play
with
a leaf shutter SLR, Topcon's aren't expensive on ebay... $45-50 for a
Topcon Unirex with a 50mm.

st off, there are leaf shutter lenses in most
35mm rangefinders, aren't there?
As for 35mm _SLR_ leaf shutters, I did get a chance to
examine a curious old camera a friend of mine inherited.
It was an SLR with a leaf shutter. When the shutter was
fired, first the leaf shutter closed, then

Actually I disagree with the usefulness of leaf shutter lenses for a 35mm
SLR. It would be a function that pros and a few advanced amateurs might use.
Since most manufacturers have a body or bodies that sync at 1/250, and most
leaf shutters have a max shutter speed of 1/500 the advantage would be

There is a tremondous difference between a Copal #0/00 and a 1 or 3. I
usually don't make any corrections with the #0/00 but do make corrections
for the 1 and 3s.
I once owned a 6X7 and had both the 90 and 160 leaf shutter lenses.
These lenses I used for primary flash photography and, f
I was taking about 35mm lenses with built
in leaf shutters that could be used on
focal plane 35mm SLR bodies. Has anybody
ever done that? And why not, they would
be just as useful as the ones offered for
medium format.

Hi Shel,
Leaf shutters actual speed depends a lot on the shooting aperture. At
any speed setting, the equivalent speed will increase as the aperture
becomes smaller. As a result, I calibrate my shutters based on my typical
shooting aperture of 16 - 32 for my view optics.

In fact there have been interchangeable lens 35mm cameras with leaf
shutters. The Retina Reflex comes to mind. A not well known fact is the
Retina Reflex III and IV used the same lens as the Retina IIIS rangefinder
camera (except the 200mm that did not work on the RF), how is that for
versatility

According to the Kodak Professional Photoguide, as well as
numerous sources on the 'net, including mailing lists that feature
cameras with leaf shutters, high shutter speeds used in conjunction
with smaller apertures produce slower effective shutter speeds,
producing more exposure tha
