Tom,
The MZ-5 can display "100", in fact it can display all the valid speeds
up to and including "2000".
I'm hoping that the camera WAS using 1/100th but displayi
Doesn't the MZ-5 have a setting on the shutter speed dial for 1/100?

Panning helps with slow flash sync, if one judges the speed and
direction correctly, just as you say above

Flash sync at 1/60 is inadequate for people in motion. Here's an
example of why I try to avoid slow sync speeds:

Artur,
I think it is a problem if the camera shoots at, say, 1/30th, because at
that speed the ambient light will affect the final photo, almost regardless
of what aperture I set. It's quite possible to have a situation where there
isn't enough light to shoot at 1/500th, which means I hav

I'm hoping that the camera WAS using 1/100th but displaying 1/60th. I'm

No, the display shows that speed. I noticed this with the MZ-7 a few days
ago... it seems to set a sync speed of 1/15 t
