It appears that the mirror has slipped down and hits the flange on the back of the bayonet lens. With lenses without the flange, the mirror flips up without any problem. The mirror appears to be tight, and so my question is, how to remove the mirror so that it can be reglued in the proper position. Comparing it with my KR10 super, the mirror appears to be even with the bottom of the mirror plate. On the KR30 sp, it is approximately 1/16" below the mirror plate. I 'll have to be careful not to damage the silver backing on the mirror. Thanks, Harlee
