try GENTLY pulling curtain towards the rewind end of the camera--it may release it. |

I've had two X-570's do this. Eventually the pictures will start coming out half-exposed (one side of the frame completely black) but I've not heard what can be done to fix it. |

Re. Half exposed pictures, this is due to the shutter mech. not loading up fully. In base of the camera look for a large Blue gear and a small white one next to it. Then locate the small cross head screw near them, with the lens throat facing away from you undo this screw 1 turn, then push the blue gear very carefully clockwise so that it jumps 1 tooth in relation to the white gear, remesh the gears and tighten the screw. |
