So here's a nice mystery. A light leak in a Kodak Medalist (II). Not all the time, but when it does happen it is always pretty much exactly like this- 'quivering sewing needle' I call it. I'll just post one example but I have more. Leaks is on the upper right corner of film when in camera.
I don't think I've ever seen a shape like this. And for such a leak to be so consistent in look (but sporadic in oocurrance; focus distance doesn't affect look or randomness of leak).
Camera has been checked in dark room with flashlight inside. No obvious little dots, pinholes, or such.
Shutter leaf bounce? Helical bleed? Well, any thoughts appreciated.
