    What is a Copal Press Lens Shutter"Leica"?

    This item is mentioned in an online catalog, but with no further details. It is cheaper than an ordinary shutter, so would this be a simplified version of the s hutter, without diaphragm and with special 39 mm thread to allow the use of enla rger lenses with this Leica thread? Would the "Press" design by good for macro w ork? Thanks for any input!

    What is a Copal Press Lens Shutter"Leica"?

    It sounds like a special MP4 (Polaroid copy stand camera) shutter. I think you can still buy this from B&H and Adorama. I came across it when looking for a Copal shutter at both companies' sites. Do a catalog search at their websites and I think you'll one out.
