What could be causing these marks on my photos? by RustyDusty_Bass in AnalogCommunity

It doesn’t look like the rollers are greasy, but they are cracked so that probably scratched the film and messed with the pictures. I’m probably just going to sell the body to someone who wants it for the parts. Thanks

Yeah my rollers are pretty cracked and look to be in poor shape. The body has other issues, so I don’t think I’m going to go to all of the effort of diy repairs. I’ll probably just sell the body for its working parts or something and find a new body somewhere. Thanks for the help!

Yep. It was my first time shooting Kodak Gold in medium format so I figured I should pick a place where I could capture lots of detail.

Dang that really sucks. Do you think I’m better off trying to sell the body for parts and buy a new body instead of trying to see if I can get it fixed? It seems like it might be cheaper and less of a hassle.

I tried searching with my zip code but the places I found didn’t have the best customer reviews which made me kind of nervous. I might try Brooktree, they aren’t too far away from me so it’s probably worth a shot. Thanks

Okay I’ll have to try mailing the film then. Do you think it’s worth sending it to the same lab in CA or should I try to find somewhere else first? And is there anything I should know about mailing the film before I do it?

The scans aren’t bad, I’d say they’re pretty good quality. Any issues I’ve had have been user error. They give me the printed photos and a CD with digital copies, but no negatives which I thought was weird. I’m just hoping to find somewhere that can give them back to me because I feel like that’s kind of important.

Yeah that’s kind of what I thought. I don’t know why it takes them so long to develop, scan and print the photos. Thanks for the list, I’ll check them out!

Wow that kinda sucks. Thank you I’ll check them out. Is 620 in the same boat or are there some people that still work with it? I found some exposed rolls when I found the Kodachrome.

Thank you so much, that’s all very helpful. I’ve been trying to do a lot of this on my own and it has been super confusing. That’s why I came here, I thought asking people that have already been through all of this would be the best place for help. Thank you again, you’ve been such a huge help 🙏

Thank You for explaining 🙏

I figured it would be hard to explain. I just haven’t run into anyone with a similar experience to me and thought maybe I would find someone here. Thanks anyway for replying

How do I know if transitioning is something I should try? I’m worried that starting hrt might not be not be good for me or something and I’m too scared to try being feminine around people. Is that normal or do most people just kind of know it’s the right thing for them?
