This week's video looks at a camera-related negative flaw. Older camera curtains, especially ones driven by spring action, can suffer from curtain bounce as the springs age or if the camera was stored with the shutter ready to take a photo. (This is why it's key to always disarm your shutter before taking a photo!) This video looks at what causes curtain bounce and how to identify the origin.
