About this camera The Minolta V2 of 1958 made headlines as the first camera with a leaf shutter reaching 1/2000 s, thanks to its Optiper-Citizen MVL shutter. It pairs that record-breaking shutter with a fast Rokkor-PF 45mm f/2 lens and a coupled rangefinder in a solid, well-finished body - a landmark in Minolta's rangefinder history and an uncommon find today. Measured Performance - 1 s — measured 1/0.8 s (approx. 0.3 stop slow) - 1/60 — measured 1/46 s (approx. 0.4 stop slow) - 1/2000 — measured 1/1690 s (approx. 0.2 stop slow) The leaf shutter fires at all speeds up to 1/2000 s and the coupled rangefinder works.
