It is a dust baffle, like in a Hasselblad 500 series light baffle. It protects the "film" from stray "light" ( sensor from stray dust.) It does no timing function for the picture taking. Timing ( the function of a shutter) is done by electronic timing circuits. It is NOT a physical function, it is an electronic one. Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net
