When I bought this camera from ePray, I knew it had a light leak in the door latch area. So, I installed some of Jon Goodman's foam seals in the door channels in hopes of sealing it up. When I ran a 12 exp roll of HP5 through it, I thought I'd done so, but when I was scanning them, I did find one shot with the leak showing. Does seem to be coming from the lower left corner, hence the door area.

Any suggestions on what I ought to do?
 
Heres where my like leak was. Open the door and take a look at that shield that covers the sprockets. Underneath the take up spool are two screws holding that shield in. If one is missing, thats the leak. If both are there , make sure they are tight. Light will leak thru the nylon body covering.
