SWC /m sealings

[k.hendrik]

Please help wanted; I have light leaks at the l.u.c. of my film. Anybody knows or can show me were the black 'string' should be in the film cassette ? Is it all the way around or are some spots that do without it ??
Thanks.

could only be me... i'm not clear about anything you asked, no response may mean others are as well... if just me, please ignore my reply.

Thanks jvo. Problem solved. Hermeneutic answer is following and yes it was the "Light trap foam pad".

 

[k.hendrik]

l.u.c. should be u.l.c.
I know there is a black string/cord on the right side of the 'spoolholder'. Q.: should there be a piece of black cord/string/rope/line on the left side as well ?

Everything you always wanted to know about seals * but were afraid to ask.

all but one of my magazines had film in it. The empty one only had the string/cord on the dark slide side. I know that magazine is light tight.

I still have no idea what u.i.c., or i.u.c., means. My ignorance aside, I'm glad that the problem has been solved.

I did not know either and I still do not know. It is not in my LOAAA!

as some of us uninformed wander we occasionally effect solution, if, in our meanderings benefit is generated i don't know that credit can accrue to us, but i will accept the applause and graciously bow!

glad to know the problem is solved!

I still do not know what u.i.c nor i.u.c. mean.

Time to break out the enigma machine again.

I assume it was ULC or LUC not UIC or IUC. I took it to mean upper left corner.

Bingo. At least, that's what I understood.
