It must be an R6 or 6.2. On the mechanical cameras, the shutter speeds displayed are linked to the shutter speed dial with a cord and I think the speed are on a ribbon. As the dial is moved the cord pulls the ribbon with the speeds on it past the window in the viewfinder. On the other end of the ribbon is a spring of sorts that takes up the tension. Something in the mechanism probably needs to be cleaned. When has the camera last had a Clean Lube Adjust (CLA)?
