I'm not sure of the purpose of that, but it is very cool, and most impressive, which eliminates the need for any specific purpose.

Thanx, Wayne.

That was cool, I always seeing how things work inside things, especially the shutters of cameras

Most of us these days are 'time poor' and I often wonder how I justify so much time browsing forums, let alone embarking on projects like this one. However this really is a good insight to how manufacturers help justify chargeing what they do, the engineering and precision involved and just some of what's behind this passion we all pursue. Thanks for the post.

I've watched and re-watched the series of photos and I'm really impressed at how all this happens so quickly. The shutter curtains are subjected to so many repetitions of the same movement its quite amazing they last so long. I didn't know there were two curtains until I saw this.
