      I believe they, and pretty much everyone else here, thought you were talking about the mechanical shutter that you have to manually slide over the lens.

        That’s not what mechanical means, but I can understand the confusion.

        Those are manual shutters. If it’s mechanical, unless you are using a very archaic definition or speaking in a different context it is capable of self movement in some form.

        Not that I’d be particularly surprised to find out product marketing on the question is all over the place.
