That's a great idea and thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I don't have
the access to the shutter timer right now, so I'm not sure how accurate my
testing would be.
It brings up a related question I have been wondering about. Namely, what -- if
any -- effect can I expect from the vibrations of this mechanical self-timer.
It continues to rumble a bit after the shutter is tripped. Has anyone tested
MLU with self-timer vs. MLU with cable-release with high resolution film at
various speeds?
