I assume you mean that the metal laths in/on the blinds are not overlapping properly in the untensioned state.You do not say if this has suddenly happened,was there when purchased or if somebody has been 'adjusting' shutter. If camera is original,then the ribbons may have stretched due to age or wear.Gap closes on winding because the material being wound onto roller effectively increases the diameter,thus taking in more material and drawing ends of blinds together.It is also just possible that something is stopping the righthand blind (viewed from rear) from closing fully.Make sure that the 'interupter' gear at bottom of camera is completely clean and free of debris.Also check that the fast speeds select properly. If this does not work, you will need to strip the shutter out and try to reassemble the blinds/rollers in their proper positions relative to each other.If problem due to incorrect assembly,this may be all it needs.If new blinds have been fitted,then you may have to reglue blind/ribbons in their correct location on the rollers.If ribbons are worn, then new blinds/ribbons are the order of the day. |
