TLR with continuously variable shutter speed?
Does anyone know of a TLR with a continuously variable shutter speed? In
other words the shutter will produced speeds in between the standard ones i.e. 1/60, 1/125, etc.? Thanks, Steve |

A continuously variable aperture is easy why would you want
a variable shutter of this type--it would not be very repeatable. darkroommike wrote: Does anyone know of a TLR with a continuously variable shutter speed? In other words the shutter will produced speeds in between the standard ones i.e. 1/60, 1/125, etc.? Thanks, Steve |

Thanks, Steve I don't know of one. Why do you think you need one? Is it to get the exposure right? In which case the aperture is most likely continuously variable. |

Thanks, Steve Yes. I have a mid '50s Rolleiflex TLR that has continuously variable shutter speeds and aperture. You do? What model number might that marvel be? -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.

I think my mid 50s Zenobiaflex is like that as well; at least the lever moves smoothly all the way from 1 sec to 1/500 without any clicks or such at the markings... I always set it at an exact indicated speed however, so I'm not sure how it behaves in between them... And don't want to try it right now as I have film in it. -- Fredrik Sandström |

I have a mid '50s Rolleiflex TLR that has continuously variable shutter speeds and aperture. You do? What model number might that marvel be? It's a Rolleiflex with a 3.5f Tessar and no meter. I've seen conflicting opinions of what the "model number" might be, but I've traced the serial number to find out the approximate date of manufacture. I've had it for about 30 years, now. That being the case, the shutter speeds are fixed. Yes, you can rotate the speed indicator so that an area between two marked speeds is displayed but that doesn't mean you are *getting* an intermediate shutter speed...you'll be getting one or the other. The same is true of any mechanical shutter I have ever seen. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.

Minolta Autocord is claimed to have a stepless shutter speed: "Possibly you have noticed that the shutter dial on your camera lacks click-stops. Minolta claims that this shutter can be set to *any* speed, even in-between speeds; an unusual feature, although I do not know how useful it is." http://sds.com/mug/autocord_faq.html |
