I agree with you that triggering the shutter causes a significant amount of movement and this also happen when using the grip shutter release. Apparently the camera prevents you for removing the back without a slider when there’s film inside but it doesn’t do so when you try to open the back. For example despite its many security/fail-safes, the other day I accidentally openned the film back and ruined an almost entirely exposed roll of FujiPro400.

This series was the first to have a leaf shutter system, it also has an electronic shutter ranging from 8s to 1/500s (there is also a 1/500s mechanical setting). Fun fact about Bronica at the time: they had tried to partner up with Carl Zeiss and, what was later known as, Topcon for the optics before opting to produce their own optics. The Bronica ETRSi is the last model of the Bronica ETR series which shoot 6×4.5cm pictures on 120/220 film. Their last camera – the RF645 rangefinder – was discontinued in 2005 and the brand was shortly shuttered by its owner Tamron shortly after.
