Vincent,
I think I had a similar issue with my 503cw. The problem was that the
rear curtains of the body did not close in proper sequence and got
stuck onto each other midway. This explains the horizontal line
across the slides/negs. The degree of light leak then depends on how
long ago the last shot was taken. In my case it did not occur all the
time, only once in a while. Remove film back and fire the shutter a
few times while watching how the body behaves. A local Hasselblad
technician here in Shanghai fixed it for me.
Hope that this helps.
Oleg.

Vincent,
We'd have to see what the negs look like. Can you scan them and post
them somewhere?
Does it occur when photographing anything? Or when photographing a
certain subject. If the latter, it could be a reflection inside your
camera or lens causing the streak.

Before I call Hasselblad service (it was CLA'd recently): there's
a new problem occurring with either the 2000 body or my two well
used A12 backs (one back holds self developed B&W, and the holds
lab developed color). Several negatives display a 1/2" wide light-
leak kind of ghost line horizontally across the middle of the
negative, but not quite reaching edge to edge (horizontal, when
holding the strip up and down). On either side of this ghost line,
the negative is dark. Sometimes the adjacent negative is perfect.
Sometimes the adjacent negative is black or deep gray. As I say,
the problem has just started. I do switch backs regularly, and
perhaps the back isn't snapped tight to the body, but that doesn't
account for the 1/2" line being horizontal on the frame. And worn
seals (on both simultaniously!) wouldn't account for the perfect
negatives. Any clues, folks?
