P3D Re: Shutter Testing (PHOTO-3D digest 3497)

Some excellent points, Bob. The Olympus XA2 has a bad shutter efficiency
problem, IMO, at least according to my sample. At the higher speeds the
edges of the picture are significantly darker than the center. For this
reason I often mounted flat slides from it in square mounts. It was a
major factor in discouraging me from my serious thoughts about acquiring
another and twinning them.
