That's absolutely true. In fact, if you see the picture, you missed it,
because the mirror is in the way when the picture is being taken. Though
the F5's mirror up and down is so fast, you get a good idea of what you
got. Now just double the speed of the motor on the R8, and I'd me in hog
heaven. :-) Hey, I'm not paying for my film.
