This is not automatic, though -- you have to lock the mirror up, trigger the shutter, and then release the mirror. This is OK for long exposures on a tripod (or hanging off the back end of a Questar) but terrible for 'normal' shooting. You pays yer money and ya takes yer cherce. Berry Kercheval Zehntel Inc.
