This would seem to circumvent the problem entirely - I also found short exposures BEFORE I used this technique showing the shadow of the iris.
A KAF sensor will start counting photo electrons as soon it sees them, i.e. as soon as the shutter opens. I don't see how this could work?

OTOH, a Chesty Bond sounds good.
