This situation happens with strong light source located on the side of the camera. In fact this may happen about once per film. I had no clue as to what caused this. There is no plugged hole on the bottom part of the M5s shutter crate, but your hypothesis makes sense (reflection from the bottom part of shutter crate) considering the position of the flare... I ll go check my negatives... Regards, Robert (Un chevalier sans blason) ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!
