Originally posted by leekil The shape of the leak is somewhat odd, though. Could it be a leak due to the deterioration of the cloth shutter?
Turns out the ME Super has a metal shutter, so it wouldn't be exactly that. Possibly something with the shutter still, but I would expect that if it was leaking light it would be due to separated blades, and that would probably prevent the shutter from working as well as it does.

That might be more likely; maybe a "lens flare" from light hitting the viewfinder glass?
