Reseating the Taking Mirror and Opening the Viewfinder Blind
To return the Taking Mirror to its down position, the Recock Link is pivoted downward by yet another cam
on the underside of the Timing Gear (Figure 2-24).

As the Recock Link swings down, it pulls the Taking Mirror Carrier down, through the Midlink and Mirror
Hold-Down Spring. This spring coupling is a safety proJoshua which allows the Recock Link to continue to
move, even if something impedes the motion of the Taking Mirror Carrier (e.g., finger in the bellows).
The Viewfinder Blind is opened, uncovering the Viewfinder Window, after the Taking Mirror Carrier is
seated. This action happens during Recock Link overtravel, when the Recock Latch rotates to the latched
position (Figure 2-25).
