No my point was that you do not need to conduct those kind of experiments
with wunderbricks! They are far ahead of even the most advanced MF
cameras... While the means used to select flash exposures may be opaque, it
works beautifully, and more importantly, is fully over-rideable by the user
in a number of ways; thru camera body, flash, and control back...
