I'm working on a Minolta x370 and when I measure the shutters speeds, both manual and automatic, they are about 15 percent fast, i.e 14.5msec instead of 16.7 at 1/60. Is the only way to correct this problem by adjusting the curtain speeds. And if so then would you increase the curtain speed to increase the exposure time.
