Iskra blues

[bimmey]

Hello forum. I noticed a problem with my Iskra negatives on my last roll. There is a vertical rectangular light leak on the right side of the image. It's uniform and shows outside the image as well. It is not on all the images. My guess is it is comming from the ends of the back where it attaches to the camera. I would like to hear your opinions.

Thanks Steve

The light leak can be solved easily by electrical tape from inside of the body. Look for the tiny gap between the body and the case of the front hinged door. The place, where the body and the door case meet, does not have a seal. I don't have the camera with me, so I grabbed some pictures from the Internet to show the place to look for. I hope it helps.

Thanks Petr, I'll give that a try.
