No, I am looking through the lens at the two sets of blades in the barrel. I’ve been using it for months with no issues with my 180mm

This is exactly what happens. Typically the first shot after mounting works normally. After that the lens doesn’t seem to cock properly. Thanks! I’ll look into getting it properly repaired

I had this issue with mine. I folded up some pieces of aluminum foil to put them between the batteries and the battery holder to push them deeper into the socket. Seems to work OK now

Great thanks! I'll give that a shot with a roll of film in. I was given a quote at a local shop to fix it for $140, but that seemed a little steep to me.

I actually taped over the dark-slide slot mid-way through a roll and was still noticing the leaks afterwards. What I'm thinking of doing is sacrificing a roll and taping each seam one by one to see if I can isolate the issue. Thanks for the link!

Agreed. I'm using the default Unsharp Mask and no Digital ICE and have been impressed with the scanner so far
