Hello,
My name is Petr and I am new to the Rollei world and to this list. I've been
shooting with Exaktas, P-6 and Russian MF folders for a while; and recently
I've succumbed to the magic of SL66.
I purchased a used SL-66 that shows a light leak in the first film I ran
thru the camera. That's not a good sign but before I take any actions; I'd
like to know your opinion where it may come from. A friend of mine on manual
focus forum suggests that the leak may be caused by bad tightness of
curtains when winding the shutter. Has anyone experienced such problem with
SL66? A link to picture with leak is below. This leak appeared only once and
in the middle of the film, the remaining eleven frames are good.

Thank you for you suggestions,
Petr
