The OP's original post does read though as if they are setting the aperture on lens based on the suggested value from the meter, and has taken earlier rolls with no problem. Maybe the issue is the ...

Did you confuse them just in describing things in this thread or did you have the settings wrong for the photos you posted? The photos you posted of London should not be that underexposed if you ...

I don't quite understand why the silver shaft cannot be pushed down? I would have thought it should ordinarily freely move down? Isn't the bottom of that silver shaft connected to the fork which ...

I used to live in Japan and visited regularly up to 2019. I've bought quite a bit of 2nd hand camera gear in Tokyo (mainly Nikon AI manual lenses and Canon EF digital lenses) from well-known ...
-
I've never had an FG but Is this behaviour the same for manual speeds and aperture priority? (and the other electronic functions are all OK?) Looks like you can get the service manual if you do a ...
-
That's progress then! You could still try another roll to see if the problem goes away at slightly slower shutter speeds. If you correct your sometime under exposure and tend to err on ...

I don't know much about the IIIf but a quick google search suggests at least early models had flash sync of only 1/30 so the slit could be as small as 2.25mm. Alan

So to OP demonboy - what you should do if there is no film in the camera is to look at the vertical edges of the shutter curtains with the camera open as you continually slowly wind the ...
-
The OP's images are tagged as if a Noritsu scanner was used. If the OP's issue was a scanning issue does it necessarily relate to the direction of the scan? I'd been assuming they were more some ...

Presumably they realised with the prism in the way they couldn't use the sideways hotshoe-mounted meter coupling used in the SP?
-
So I guess the OP should first look at the shutter curtain edges with the back of camera open and lens off as they slowly wind the camera. Other than getting any problem fixed then the other ...
-
Definitely looks similar to the OP's problem. Was it the edge of the shutter curtain that was frayed (so that the slit that moves across the film is a thin rectangle with jagged vertical sides)? Alan
-
How did you meter the shots? Manually with sunny 16 rule? Alan
-
It could also be caused during the scanning process especially if there is a lot of correction being applied. Do you have the negatives? If so, then look whether they are very dark or very light ...
-
The new CT scanners are not yet widespread everywhere - in the UK I have only been through one once in recent trips, So probably you are more likely to have gone through an old style machine in ...
-
Unfortunately that seems to vary from country to country. Alan
-
This rule of thumb is only true for the old type of scanners. The new CT scanners that some airports now have involve higher doses. Alan
-
There are 2 types of scanners in use for hand baggage depending on the airport. Some airports have both types in use. There are the old x-ray scanners which are safe for film below 800 ISO but ...
-
The exposure meters of 2 cameras will not necessarily agree because of differences in weighting, battery voltage, sensor calibration etc. As Overrank mentioned, the actual shutter speeds of manual ...

Since I started needing reading glasses using my DSLR screen or phone camera has become a pain. So in that sense using an SLR with spit prism without worrying about immediately checking the result ...
