Alright this one is a bit of an odd one. I shot a role of regular black and white 36 shot on the old Exakta. Everything seemed okay-it loaded alright, the counter kept accurate count, shutter released, lens worked, and it seemed to wind back up normally. I take the film to be developed and nothing comes out! Well to be more precise something came out but not much. There is the leader, then the first few shots on the negative are weird- they have lines through them and no real elements of any of the exposures I took. The other thing is they don't seem to really be spaced out normally on the negative strip. Normally I know there are the lines between each shot, but here that doesn't seem to be the case. After these few blobby and liney images on the negative comes a stretch of pure blackness (over exposed or something?). After the stretch of pure blackness ther est of the negative roll is transparent (not used at all?). Most of the roll is transparent, except for the blobby attempted-shots and the black set. Anyone know what this might be? I think the film was about a year old and was Kodak black and white (I don't think that's too old).
