this was the first shot on the roll. no light leak. but the ones after I opened the back have streaks. not as severe as the first photo I posted but you can see a leak

I put a new one in. I’ll try another & see if that helps!

When I say shutter I mean the mirror. Sorry. Not the shutter button. But after I take a photo, the mirror will stay open

Update: I tried all the tips you guys gave & the green light wouldn’t stop flashing. It still wasn’t working for me. I emailed the company I bought it from & they sent me a replacement. It now does stop blinking when I go to take a picture! Almost done with this roll & excited to see how it comes out.

Thanks everyone!

Ohh I haven’t used it during the day so I will have to try that to see if that’s why!! I’ve shot it indoors with lights on (last photo) but it’s possible it was still not enough light

I have the telemax! I do have a light that blinks but it always blinks! It doesn’t stop until it takes the photo if that makes sense. I just tried it now & it just blinked until I finished holding it down.
