Gauthier Vario Dial Set Shutter (07)
Vario dial set.
German everset leaf shutter produced by Gauthier.
Much of the mechanism re-installed.
This image shows the Shutter in the actuated (open) state during a T(ime) exposure.
The Speed Lever is at the position of the green arrow blocked by the Function Cam.
The shutter still not functions well. Sometimes it stays open during T but most of the times it just closes immediatly again. My suspicion is that the 2 springs (see red arrows) are not original or not correctly re-installed during the last service or maybe even too old and weak. Will try a swap between the 2 springs first as this could be a very probable cause.
