(i know it should stop at the end and then the revealed little button will release it.) when i let it go, it would not complete the whole course but stops short and would not trigger the shutter. who use self timer on street candid shoots anyway...my question is: would this somehow affect/interfere with the shutter function? also, if i "exercise" it, would it come back to life? would appreciate any help... chang p.s. if anyone feels this is too "basic" for the group please contact mt off-list at cchang@gc.cuny.edu
