upon further investigation, the first shutter curtain, (closest to the lens mount) is only partially open (or partially closed). Anyway, the first curtain is stuck. Mirror can be moved and locked into shotting position (mirror down) by moving a tab on the left side of the camera (viewing the camera with lens mount facing you) Any ideas on how the move the shutter curtain?

thanks
