Unlike traditinal film cameras that use curtainsnear the film plane, the hasselblad 500C/M utilizes a Compur leaf shutter built directly into the Zeiss lenses. This mechanical elegance allows for full flash synchronization at all speeds up to 1/500s, giving you total control over ambient light. Think of a leaf shutter like the iris of an eye. It cossists of small, overlapping metal blades (the leaves) that sprinf open and shut in a circular motion during an exposure
