So the shutter stays open. Does it close when you take the batteries out?
Is it set to auto or manual when the shutter stays open (And I mean open,
not mirror up, white speckles on curtain showing) there is a big difference
between shutter LOCK up and shutter actually opening and staying open.
If it locks open on auto, does it close when switched to manual? Let me
know what you can, I'll try to help.
