Wanted to run a roll of film through this new-to-me camera so took the pup down for a quick walk to the beach. Some of the images came out great and that Takumar 55mm 1.4 lens is incredible. Bummer thing however is the camera looks like it needs a CLA as some of the frames are quite a bit darker on the right side of the frame. From what I understand this is caused from the second curtain of the shutter being out of sync and dragging and usually happens at higher shutter speeds. Probably need to do another test roll or two through it and see if a CLA would be worth doing or cost more than a new tested camera. (This was advertised as top mint like new and tested from eBay Japan… You win some, you lose some.)
