Ah, Francesco, if you ask questions like that you will make all kinds of
traditionalists that love the M just the way it is uncomfortable--those
who wouldn't change the shutter no matter what to get a higher sync
speed.  Best you just wait for or find lower light where 1/50 and f/4 is
the proper exposure and not ask such questions.  Tsk-tsk.  :)
