mjferron Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Buddy dog and I took a walk down to the park and I shot just to shoot. Upon scanning I came across 2 oddities. I am wondering if someone might know the possible cause. Only these 2 frames show said glitch and lens flare is out as the weather was dull and gloomy. Minolta XD, MD 28mm 2.8 on Foma 200. All shots at F4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bryant Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 The closest I have seen to that was when the layers of film touched each other in the reel when developing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_foreman1 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I would think this may also be visible on the film. I would say these are caused by buckling. This can, as James mentioned happen with the reels.. but not due to touching but "jamminging" pinchiing and twising while loading on the reels. This should also be visible on the film a slight "knick" that'S German for a fold or bend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
q.g._de_bakker Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) Yes, it is caused by kinking or buckling the film. No doubts. Typical. Edited March 30, 2021 by q.g._de_bakker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick_van_Nooij Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 That's the first thing that comes to mind when I saw the images. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Takes me back to my first attempts to load film in steel spirals... I successfully created dozens of these "glitches"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjferron Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 All makes sense. I decided to load on a plastic reel but it was the wrong reel and it jammed. Had to fumble around for the changing bag to stash said reel and turn on lights. It went on to my trusted Hewes reel but the damage had been done.

JDMvW Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 "kinky" as they say. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodeo_joe1 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Here's one of mine. Luckily, right on the edge of the film and outside of the frame area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_shriver Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Plastic reels are evil. I've got Nikor reels from Minox to 122 size, and everything in-between. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
