I'm getting a strange light leak on 4x5 film.
I received a few 4x5 holders with the Cambo and they were pre-loaded with film, so their origin is unknown, but I trust Jim can load film properly!
One holder has provided the same light leak on both sides now.
The leak:
doesn't stretch outside of the frame - unexposed area doesn't show any leak there
is broad and quite faint, a line but very fuzzy across the frame
about 1/3 along the film, on the side towards the loading mech (where the film slides in) - along the short side, not down the centre (top to bottom if film is landscape)
Appears to be clean light, not a ghost image, especially by it's shape.
I would have thought it was a camera fault, but the last time I got this leak, I was using a different camera, so unless I have the exact problem with 2 cameras, I'm lost!!
I guess it's the film holder DDS but not stretching to the unexposed edges is a mystery in that case!
Any ideas?
