I think I'd try warming it up first. If you have forced-air heat in your house/apartment, set the camera where the air will blow on it. If not, you can warm your oven up to its lowest possible setting (usually will be about 200), turn it off and let it start cooling down. Set an oven thermometer inside and watch it. Once the internal temp of the oven falls to around 120, put the camera in there and close the door. After about 10 minutes, remove it and see if it starts working correctly. Sometimes winter will cause any oil present to become more sticky. You may be able to improve that with a little warmth and "exercise" of the shutter.
