Hi,
I just recently got this camera and replaced the seals. However, the shutter speed ring does not work anymore. It got very tight and I couldn't turn it. After some wiggling, it became very loose and now it's always on the BULB setting.

I'm just wondering if this is easily fixable, and if so, how would I go about it? Are there any instructions for getting to the shutter speed ring?

Thanks in advance.

PS. It's a bit discouraging when you think everything is well and then this happens...I hope I didn't replace the seals for nothing.

EDIT: Looks like the aperture ring is stuck also. It won't go past f/4 and the aperture doesn't change when I turn it down from f/4.
