Hopefully this is not a dumb question. Is the Pentax 6x7 is focal plane or leaf
shutter camera? If the former what is the max flash synchronization speed?
Referring to my earlier message about visiting Sherman Hines' photo museum in
Liverpool, Nova Scotia I recall seeing one of his Pentax 6x7's on display and
seem to
remember that 1/1000 of a second was the faster shutter speed on the dial.
1/1000 of a second in a leaf shutter camera would be quite something!
