Can anyone suggest the cause of a Zorki 4 light leak? Please see samples one and two. They were taken minutes apart from each other. The surrounding frames, also taken at the same time, are free of the vertical band in the lower right qaudrant.
The second shutter curtain has a similar mark in the right position to line up with the light leak. I've applied black fabric paint to the reverse side of the curtain. I'm thinking of applying another coat.
I'm wondering if it could be a leak where the two curtains join? So that as I'm winding on, light comes through. But then it seems it would not be consistently in one place.
I also have tried winding on, and leaving the camera that way with the lens cap off before tripping the shutter, but I'm having trouble reproducing the problem.
I took a test roll yesterday and it was fine
But it was noon and the sample pictures were taken with the sun much lower in the sky. I'm thinking the angle of the sun has something to do with it. The problem with that theory is, sample three was taken on an overcast day
Any guesses as to the cause?
