HP5 / Pentax-M 50mm F2 / K1000
(Let me know if anyone can diagnose the light streaks coming from the sprocket holes. . . Eric serviced the camera and replaced the seals in the last couple years.)

Do you roll/develop your own film?

I went through a phase of getting lots of 'light leaks' that were actually stress marks from either winding film too tight when I was loading it in a bulk loader or in getting it out again onto the developing reels. I'm afraid it's been too long for me to remember with certainty...

Are they consistent across the roll? Or only in certain spots?

By any chance did you use a Y2 or similar filter on this shot?

One day I'll have the space and resources to develop myself. For now I send off to The Darkroom. I only notice the sprocket streaking at the end of the roll. There are other mysterious issues, though. There's a band that looked like the result of a small gap in the film door but turned out to be a crease in the negative. I wonder if I could have wound the film too tight on my last frame, or if the lab mishandled it.

"Hello, I would use CL 60 min. or CLCS (Cold Start) 70 min. CLCN is for microfilms like Adox CMS, Agfa Copex Rapid with high contrast..."

Indeed, total failure with Delta 100 and CLCN. Back to a stand process...

I can't remember, it was shot in 2014, but I don't think so.

I was a bit fed-up that I didn't spot the little blind was down when I loaded my first roll of Ilford Delta 3200. The blind is for when one is using the dial data back, and I had run a few test rolls through the camera a while back.

I don't have my K2DMD to hand but is that controlled by a little wheel on the bottom? I think I put some black tape over that to make sure I never accidentally move it.

It is a little twist wheel inside the LX. You can only change it when there isn't a film in the camera and the back is open. I was testing a dial data back before selling it and forgot to twist it back. Doh.
