Photography Question

Line through the middle of photos


Just recently I noticed a white line through the middle of my photos. out of 36 exp it might be 15-20. I don't know if its the camera or the film or the lab. I started going to a new lab and buying my reala film from a new camera store. Please help! Do you think it's a serious problem with my camera???

  Take a scientific approach and change one variable at a time. Switch processing labs. All I can tell you for sure is that it's probably not the film.
If you get the same problem from another lab, there may be a rough place in your camera, on the pressure plate or some sharp edge the film passes over. Also, blow out the camera interior with a blower brush (not canned air), being very careful not to direct it at the shutter curtain.
