Would that make a difference in getting the shot? How far into the future can one predict a shot? - ------------- Gee folks I have to ask, I suppose this is of some critical mass measuring moment of timing information, but what the heck in the world does it have to do with actually taking a really cool photograph? And exactly what does it have to do with catching a moment of motivation? And oh please dear God don't tell me it makes the difference between a successful photo OR not! And does the photographer releasing the shutter knowingly calculate this delay into the exact moment of release?? And if that's the case what the hell have I been doing wrong the past 50 years not knowing about these highly technical delays? OK since I started using M cameras 40 years ago? Please explain in common man's language, that in knowing this delay stuff, I may become a better photographer. Thank you. And some of you people bitch about a few posts on something viable as single malt scotch! Jeeeeesh! :-) ted > Karen Said .......................................<<<<<<< > > M7 = 17 msec. > > M3 = even faster. <<<<< - -- - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
