Giorgio Taricco Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Hello guys, just a quick and maybe stupid answer.. finally receiced my PL mount lens so mounted on my new A-MINIMA camera I have discovered that: without a magazine the camera stops with the mirror-shutter in viewing position with a magazine the camera stops with the mirro-shutter in NON viewing position I'm not an expert about the Minima but I think that is non correct, so there is a way to check what can be wrong? Thanks for your help. Giorgio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giray Izcan Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Sounds like your shutter timing might be off. The shutter belt might be going bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio Taricco Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 I think so. Received an answer from Aaton and they said that mirror/shutter needs to be re-setted correctly as mine is running just the opposite way...so with a magazine on, the camera should stop in viewing position, without a magazine the camera should stop in NON viewing position. I will send it to Grenoble for the job and to have it cleaned and checked. Giorgio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
