If you move the flat spring over too far, which can even mean moving it all, it affects whether the second curtain is held after the first curtain is released. The arrester "B" does not engage as it is controlled by the same flat spring. What happens is that all your high speeds are 1/1000, 1/30 to 1 sec are normal and B is 1/1000 too. One person adjusted his release point and had the above symptoms and emailed me. I fiddled with my camera and immediately had the same problem. So you might be able to adjust your release point or you might not. Go slowly and put it back where it was if all goes awry.
