I'm no expert, but here's my theory. A few weeks ago, I found grossly
underexposed
strips on my slides and the shop said the 1/1000 and 1/500 speeds weren't
working
properly. I don't know the technical terms, but not all the frame got exposed
the 
same amount. Why don't you try having the shutter speeds examined by a shop.

Alternately, you could maybe hold the lens up to a light, open the baseplate
and the back and try the speeds and see if you can see anything.
