The shutter has a plastic dampener, which gets fouled over time.
Somewhere with all of that, it can stick and create erratic shutter
speeds, but only at /15 and 1/30 for some reason. I coughed up, with a
little bit of blood , $250 to get it fixed.
Mind you, I got it fixed and plan to keep this R6 until the day...well
you know when.
