l. The SEIKOSHA MX Shutter is fully synchronized equipment with three type contocts.
ln generol, the flosh bulbs for lens shutter use moy be clossified into the F closs
ond the M closs. The F closs is thqt which tokes up to 1 0 milli-second (l / I C0
sec.) before reoching the peok brightness ofter on electric current storts running.
The M clcss tokes 20 milli-seconds (li 50 sec.). This is colled o tirne log. Due to
this reoson, in order to synchronize the peok brightness of the flosh bulb with the
full opening of the shutter, synchronized contocts which corresponds io ihe cbove-
mentioned conditions ore used, so os to effeciively utilize the light from the flosh
bulb. On ihe other hond, os the time log ond the flosh time is very short for the
strobo-flosh (the electric flosh), the contoci must close ot iust the insioni when the
shutter is fully openned.
