If this makes the matter worse, then you have moved it the wrong way. Move the shutter until the white streaks disappear, whereupon you are all right. That is all there is to "setting the shutter." If there should be travel ghost both up and down it is evidence that the master blade of the shutter is not wide enough. A condition of this kind may be eliminated by riveting a small, light piece of sheet metal to each edge of the shutter blade (each edge to preserve the balance) or by 6 C++** tv rrrci. C *>«,& tee i.

This type of shutter-^has the advantage of high speed, which causes the
