>From what I can remember - B opens the shutter, the shutter stays open
as long as the button is pressed. Let go of the button and the shutter
closes. T opens the shutter at the first press, it stays open after
the button is released and closes when you next press it.

But all this is from a VERY long time ago so don't be too hard on me
if I'm suffering from scrotal tonsilitis.

I've got a copy of "The Exakta Manual" somewhere. If I can find it
I'll dig out the official line about the funny shutter speed dial etc.
