So, yesterday my mint 80mm f2.8 planar non-T* threw me a curve ball.
Everything was working perfectly, and all of a sudden the normal mechanical behavior of the lens "reversed." It would seem the lens "fires" upon the RELEASE of the shutter button instead of instantly.
Here's what's supposed to happen:
-Press shutter button
-Lens stops down to set aperture
-After set shutter speed length, lens shutter closes
-Let go of shutter
-Rear shutter in body closes
Here's what it's doing:
-Press shutter button
-lens shutter closes immediately
-let go of shutter button (slowly)
-lens shutter opens, stops down to set aperture
-rear shutter in body closes (split second after exposure, not long enough for proper exposure)
Anyone ever seen this?? It's not my 500cm body. My other lenses work fine.
I'm baffled.
