THIS is just one reason why I like this forum. I LOVE to see these "unknowns" popping up, and especially when it looks like they were a FINE piece of engineering! The shutter speeds of 1/50th and Time are a challenge for sure, and probably the whole manipulation of the camera to get a picture taken could be a challenge. But the mystery, and anticipation, and opportunity, to use something "old but good" always tugs on the psyche of a manual lens advocate.
