Hey Sampy, In same section of forum here,where you made post.There is a thread
on page 2 titled "found ME super... By Keanu. In it,there's a picture with a white
arrow pointed at the spot.Think that link says use fingernail,I feel edge of plastic
I.D. card or something alike better for cleanliness.As you mentioned your's is
clean,thats the way you want to keep it.Even the cleanest hand's have a bit
of oil on them,that little bit will hold dust.
Find that pic,note the arrow...then with clean make-shift tool (card,what ever)
very gently press down towards bottom of camera... should complete shutter stroke.
"All the dominoes will (should) fall"
One thing to keep in mind is not press too hard inwardly on shutter curtain...
very delicate,once bent,its shot! That would be toward lens mount.
And keep fingers clear of mirror so it can flop down.
Study that link,look at pic in thread on page 2 here,you'll see what I mean.
