>cameras/mount systems where the chosen aperture size only factually manifests when making the photo/pressing the trigger


What the unreal frick? I almost screwed the lens open because I thought something was wrong, as during sessions the aperture won't visibly change when adjusting it. Found out that the blades go to the adjusted position/aperture size only when shooting a phote because in this moment a lever is pulled and kind of makes the setting valid, I mean, what a fucking mess. Camera of the year 1984, they must have been on crack.
