<p>Thanks everybody, it sounds like we have a consensus here: send it to Ken! So I will send it to Ken. Thanks again for the help.</p>

<p>I have a Canon AE-1 that I have a slight sentimental attachment to (it sat in my mom's college roommate's closet for 30 years before being bestowed upon me). Ever since I started using it, it's had this weird problem:</p> <p>The advance lever and the shutter seem to work perfectly while I'm shooting, but when I get the film developed, some of the photos have black on half of the print. Some are fine, and the amount of black varies. There are also a bunch of light leaks on the most recent roll, which might be a clue.</p> <p>Any ideas what could be happening here, and if it's worth getting fixed?</p> <p><img src="http://cdn.thedarkroom.com/87420011_21028_lrg_1465490803.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="679" /></p> <p><img id="photo_1214895" src="http://cdn.thedarkroom.com/87420013_21028_lrg_1465490808.jpg" alt="Image Thumbnail" data-size="lg" /><br> <img id="photo_1214866" src="http://cdn.thedarkroom.com/00710015_21028_lrg_1465490784.jpg" alt="Image Thumbnail" data-size="lg" /></p>
