Good for 1/500 sec. Hmm... those are Compur shutter lenses for Leica? How do they work? I know that Leica experimented with Compur shutters in the pre-War period, but they have post-War ones as well??? For daylight synchro flash, it's hard to beat one of the 1960s/1970s era rangefinders with leaf shutters. My favorite is the Yashica Electro series, although I have an Olympus 35SP right now on loan that seems very nice. Or pull out my RB67.....
