The shutter button does drop the mirror back down and opens the aperture. Sometimes the mirror does not drop back down, but will on the next cycle. Also shutter speeds above 1/15 including B do not look/sound correct. It sounds like only one curtain moving and I can't see any light. Speeds 1/15 to 1 look and sound correct. I've been trying to search the archives for anything I might be able to do, reset, something specific to clean, etc. I'm just looking for a little direction to start troubleshooting. Thanks.
