I have another quick question.  This Supermatic has a press button, to keep 
the lens open.  It works, except that the shutter doesn't remain entirely 
open, the way it does at T, or when it's exposing the film.  When you press 
the button, the blades are evident (and the light loss is slightly 
evident).  Is this just the way these things work, or is it malfunctioning?

thanks,
