the travel time over let\'s say F2 aperture is much quicker than stopped down at 5.6
The entrance pupil when the aperture is set to f/2 is physically much larger than when stopped down to f/5.6, so it makes no sense that the shutter is able to cover a large distance more quickly than a small distance.
GMPhotography wroteSo it starts wide open than closes than exposure or shot is over and open backs up.
I\'m not sure what you mean by this, sorry!
I found the following in the imaging resource review for the RX1:
The Sony RX1 offers shutter speeds ranging from 1/4,000 to 30 seconds, though since it uses a leaf (diaphragm) shutter, that top speed is only available at apertures of f/5.6 or smaller. Maximum shutter speed drops to 1/3,200 at f/4 and 1/2,000 at f/2.
