: Thanx, I think I understand the good sides of the mechanical shutter now.
: However, I am a little confused. If the mechanical shutter is so good, why

1) only electronic shutters allow aperture-preferred AE (Auto Exposure)
2) only electronic shutters allow intermediate values like 1/160 sec.
3) only electronic shutters allow OTF available light metering
