The F2 has continuously-variable shutter speeds from 1/80 sec & faster. = All three Leicaflex models also have continuously-variable shutters excep= t between 1/30 and 1/60, and between 1/8 and 1/15. BTW, the SL's meter & shutter are sufficiently accurate for chromes under the most demanding natural light conditions. If I were into artifical light I might say something different. Eric, if you've never used an SL or SL2 you're missing a real treat. - -Doug
