    Be aware of the light seal!

    The one I 'forgot' to replace each 5 years, a high price to pay...

    Ouch. Seals will getcha! I've been wondering why all my films have these distinct lines on them, and for the longest time I thought it was bromide drag- then after a few months I looked and saw little to no seal on my camera.

    My Rolleiflex SL66 has no foam light seals in the magazines. One of the better parts of the design IMO. All the seals are metal.
    If it says Zeiss or Rollei, the answer is YES!

    Is that the dark slide light baffle?
    Anyone can make a Digital print, but only a photographer can make a photograph.

    The exact same thing happened to me while I was on a holiday in Paris. Let's just say it was rather annoying.
