Steve, I did never tell here that there would be no blackout. Yes, there would be blackout. But even with blackout I would be still using OVF to point and shoot. Just like in normal mode with mirror. Are you saying that would not be using OVF? What would I be using then?

You care about 'silence' but we care in this thread about top speed of shutter. And that is why that thread was started. About speed of shutter with OVF use. We are discussing here the way to point with OVF and have 1/24000 shutter speed the same time.

Yes, that is the point: he may want to use KP in electronic shutter mode and optical viewfinder instead of back LCD because of:
a) different autofocusing
b) top speed shutter time 1/24000 vs 1/6000

Did I? How?
Mirror up does not mean we are taking photo. It only means that sensor can see the world and there is no OVF. But it is a matter of camera if sensor is registering & saving a picture or not. So yes, it is possible once it is programmed.

That is exactly what I meant! :)

Why would not that be possible? Once the mirror is up you are in a mode that is pretty similar to live view. Maybe there is no image transferred to the back screen but sensor is working and can do whatever it is programmed to do.
