I have an old Kodak vigilante Junior 620, which takes some great photographs but looking at the negatives, I have noticed that along one side of the film there is a darker strip. I think this may be the result of a light leak? I can post a sample image later if need be. If it is a light leak in the bellows, how can I find/repair this?

Check as well that this is not a problem with the camera back (it may not be closing completely).

Also, are you re-spooling 120 film on to 620 spools? You might be having problems arising from that process.
