j.ed_baker Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I am in the process of "rescuing" an Argus C-4. This is the first roll that I've run through. As I cannot find any leaks I suspect a lab error. I welcome all thoughts & opinions. Thanks.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprouty Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I�d say you have a light leak. I had the same problem. Take a look <a href="http://www.photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=005Hzo">here</a> and <a href="http://www.photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=005PDv">here</a> if you care to follow the discussion. My leak was in the base plate of my camera (a Leica rangefinder). <P> Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freehueco Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 It's way too consistent to be a lab problem( it wouldn't be on the same part of every frame). Definitely a light leak.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_wehlitz Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 It looks like a light leak to me as well. When you're looking for the source of the leak, don't forget that when the image hits the film, it is upside down. I only mention this because I remember, many years ago, wasting a lot of time looking at the wrong part of a camera looking for a leak. (And I knew better too!)
