You're right on that, but if you get the fogging extending between 
frames, it's not that likely to be coming in the front....
umm, yes it can.  My counter is not working, and I sometimes check to see if 
the camera is loaded by setting to B and looking down the throat.  In all 
cases, when there is still film, and the light is bright, frame lines are 
fogged.

I think you have first curtain problems,  Try setting the camera at a low 
speed, and fire it without a lens, looking at the shutter.  See if there is 
a 
sluggish movement of the curtains.
