Light Leaks (was [KOML] Test?)

>Hank and Clint, it sounds as though you have had some experience in felt
replacement - anything you would like to share with us?  ie materials used
and locations of felts etc etc.<

Clive,

I had mine done under the store waranty that came with my camera when I
bought it.  They replaced the felt that seals the two pieces of the film
back/magazine.  There is also felt around where the front part of the film
magazine seats up against the camera body.  This is where I was really
having problems.  The lens mount area has it as well.   My advice is to run
a couple of rolls of film through it as soon as you get it.  I ran a couple
rolls of Ektachrome through mine and had it processed that same day.  It
was real obvious I had light leaks.  Good luck.

Best,  Clint
