rjm photo Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 <p>Just purchased this camera and I am noticing a light leak on the same spot on every 3 out of 5 frames. Any suggestions on where to look for the source?</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark_l6 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 <p>Look up 'rolleiflex roller reflection' on photo.net!<br> Pretty sure that's your problem.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_purdy Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 <p>Actually that wouldn't be the roller reflection because the roller reflection always shows up on the bottom of a picture. I would guess that your light leak is from a leaky rubber seal around the taking lens. It is very hard to see but there is a seal inside there that is flexible and moves with the focus. It gets leaky on some cameras though never on one that I have owned. I am not sure how expensive it is to repair.<br> Dennis</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
