I just picked up a very clean Minolta X-370 camera, with the fault that the second curtain is not completing its travel when the shutter is released. The second curtain stops about 2/3 way across the film opening. If I gently move it over, when the metal edge band gets into the left-side (viewed from back) niche the mirror returns with a 'click' and the shutter can be wound on. This seems to happen at any set shutter speed... and the curtain doesn't seem to have any tension as it stops. It looks a little loose to my eye, too. Any ideas what needs to be adjusted to set the curtain traveling all the way across? |
