Mobius Member 68 posts Joined Apr 2005 Location: Riverview, MI More info | Oct 04, 2005 00:24 | #1 here's my problem:
Does anybody know what could be causing this? The lens is not dirty, as it does it with all of my lenses. The sensor is not dirty, as it was looked at under magnifcation. And it's not a lens flare, as the same **** happens with a polarizer, and facing away from the sun. It's really pissing me the hell off, since it's ruined about 30 good pictures.

pashooter Member 81 posts Joined Aug 2005 Location: York, PA More info | Can anyone explain how a malfunction in a vertically-traveling focal plane shutter could cause an arc like that? A sticky shutter would cause horizontal bands of over (or under) exposed image. Canon EOS Elan
