I need your help identifying this problem.
Has anyone ever seen a problem like this?
I at first thought that it was lens flare because it was (and still is) intermittent and seemingly random. But lately the severity of the leak is increasing. (see attached sample)
What could this be? Maybe the film canister viewing window? Other than that, I think the shutter blades seem light tight.
Thanks,
Warren

Poltergeists? First thing I'd do is tape up the film cannister window and see if that might be the source, but I doubt it

Light leaks are hard to find, and I did have one associated with the film ID window. I'm not an expert, but this is what I did. I taped the door and peeled the tape off during exposures (take notes) and then was able to say 'I still had a problem.' So incorporate the film window in your test.
