I've read somewhere that shutter speeds within 30% are considered "accurate" for mechanical shutters. That's 1/3rd of a stop.

My first thought was that the different emission control standards would result in different sounds.

Then I remembered the thread was about cameras.

Anyone who says "Sover has fobidden me from buying" has already drunk the Kool aid. Not that Sover is wrong!! But the quote says essentially, "I've put my personal brain into a bucket and let someone else do my thinking for me". Also, 13 F2's? Are-you-crazy?

(Sover has fobidden me from buying any more cameras from especially hot & humid climes, such as the southern U.S. or Asia, unless there is proof that the gear has been environmentally protected.)

If that's the case, then I guess I should just hang it up then. It's all over with. The hot and humid climate which I was born into and still reside in is just too much. And I guess I should remove myself from his waiting list as well.
