Hail Pentaxians! I recently toured Colorado. During the trip I proved my infinite capacity for moronic clumsiness and poked my thumb through the shutter on my ZX-5N while I was loading a fresh roll of EBX. I managed to get the little curtains back into the slot so that the shutter worked but not before one of them got damaged. That one curtain no longer lies perfectly flat. I shot the roll of film using that body anyway and the pictures seem to be fine. Should I have the shutter replaced or is it safe to use it the way it is?
BTW, I pressed my old warhorse K1000 into service for the balance of the trip because I didn't trust that shutter. I got some great shots using the match needle. Who needs autofocus or autoexposure?
