Hey,

I'm in the process of repairing my Konica and I've currently got the shutter in pieces on my desk, the blades were very sticky so it needed a full disasembly. There is only one problem, there seems to be 6 blades, but only space for 5 (ie 5 sets of pins for them to sit on). The shutter is a Konirapid-s (which looks like an exact copy of a Compur rapid to my eyes), any idea where the extra blade fits? I've tried a part assembly (without putting the cover on, just placing the blades on their pivots and using the actuator to open the shutter) and the blades cover and uncover the aperture perfectly without the extra blade, could this just be some sort of factory error?

Thanks in advance

Rob
