One note about Canon shutters. There was at least one exception to the hozizonally traveling cloth shutter in Canon MF cameras -- the Canon EF from ca. 1974. I have two copies of this cameras some times referred to as "The Black Beauty". Quoting Wikipedia "The EF used a unique shutter among Canon's 35mm SLRs: a Copal Square vertical-travel metal blade focal plane shutter". It is Similar to the Leitz/Copal shutter in my Minolta XE-7 and XD-7 from the same era.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
