A few of the AF point-and-shoot compacts, such as the Olympus Stylus Epic, can do 1/1000 second. Back in the 1980s, the Olympus XA-4 could do 1/750 second. The Vivitar 35 EM, a late 70s or 1980s knockoff of the Minox 35, reached 1/1000 second. The Leica M rangefinders have long been able to reach 1/1000 second. So could the Leica CL and Minolta CLE,I think. In the 1950s, according to http://www.cameraquest.com, one of the Zeiss Ikons achieved 1/1250 second! In APS, the Contact Tix can do 1/800 or 1/1000 second, I think. The Canon Elph Jr., 1/800. If the recently introduced Contax T* 3 can surpass 1/500 second, I'd like to know.
