Ok, thanks...

I'm amazed nobody's snatched this up at that price! I already have one and I'm tempted to get this just for the manual, lol.

Also, pretty much everything I've ever read says your original post was correct with the 1/500 shutter speed without a battery. The 1/30 is the shutter speed at the flash setting.

Thank you.

Now I'm confused: I brought out a Yashica GSN and a Yashica GT. The GT has been cla'd, but not the GSN. With the GSN, looking at the shutter without the battery, it looks and sounds like the shutter speed is 1/500 on both the flash and auto settings. With the GT, the shutter speed seems to be slower than 1/30 on the flash and auto settings. But with a battery, the shutter speeds with flash settings are accurate on both and they vary of course on the auto settings. I've gotten great results with both cameras.

Moral of the story: Always have a fresh battery with a back up! Good luck with the sale.
