Hey Guys,
I'm new to this forum however not exactly new to photography. I just got re-acquainted with shooting film after a decade and have so far gone through m3, 500cm, rollei, nikon F, eos 3 and now im currently using a M6.
The problem... all my shots with the M6, I am getting something weird.. it looks like a scratch but its not, it looks like there are 3 hair marks on the top left corner of every frame.. not sure what it is. not really a huge deal because of the location of it, but just curious if anyone has this as well.
Any ideas?

could be hairs in the film gate (is that what it's called? well, it's the thing the shutter opens to)... trip the shutter on B and have a look. if it's on the top left of the photos it should be on the bottom right of the film gate...

Agreed - looks like that to me as well.
