I have two compur - compound Shutter each contain 150mm lens:
Now I do understand the primary pricipal of the shutter!
You can not set the shutter while in T or B mode otherwise it will cause damage
one only needs to use the shutter release lever for either T or B :
I believe I am correct so far!
Now my lack of understanding comes here, when I set the shutter in the 1 or 2 or 5
second setting NOW does one need to hold the shutter release lever down till after the shutter finish going off???
The reason I ask this, is Because when I set the shutter at 1 or 2 or 5 second speed
and just depress the shutter release lever and let go of it ,the shutter starts to go off but stops?? BUT when I depress the shutter lever and hold till the shutter finish , I have no problems:
Could someone clarify which is the prop-er way to fire the shutter at the 1 or 2 or 5 sec marks!!
I have reviewed over 146 threads on compound shutters but none have that answer!
even read one asking the proper use of compound shutters??
I thank you folks in advance for any responces :
