In rare cases, the camera may not operate correctly due to static

 

electricity. This can be remedied by taking the batteries out and putting

 

them back in again. When the mirror remains in the up position, take the

 

batteries out and put them back in again. Then, turn the power on. The

6

mirror will retract. After the procedure is done, if the camera operates

correctly, it does not require any repairs.
