Hi guys, I took the photos below using K1000 28mm/f3.5, film kodak GC 400.

Im new to film and I don't quite get it why the photos hv a greater exposure on one side.. anyone out there can tell me what's wrong with my photos?

thanks for your helps ((:
 

My guess is that there is a problem with the shutter curtain that closes a fraction of a second slower on the right. Is every single shot like this? Did you get the camera second hand? Or has the camera been passed down?

Also, any filter used?
 

yeh its a second hand camera, not all shots look this way though. its only these few photos... is there a way to fix it if its the shutter problem?
and yupss, with filter
 

maybe it only happens at different shutter speeds, probably u need to get it fixed if this cult status camera has sentimental values.:)
 

Agree with eselite, you may want to get the camera checked out and get it CLA-ed.
