is this under warranty ???

[iceman]

got my developed prints today and noticed that on all the frames (except those that are not exposed), there is a consistent scratch across each frame. this could be due to sand particle being introduced during the loading of the film cartridge. ;(

the warranty for my camera (dynax) is still valid. can i just send it in for servicing?

if it is still under warranty, why not ????

You may find this isn't covered under the warranty as it's not a manufacturing defect or failure.

Normally a quick blow inside the camera body with a blower brush will remove any sand, dirt, dust etc.

try shooting another roll (or a few more) just to confirm that it's a camera body defect. it might be just dirt in the body after all.

actually shot 0.5 roll on sun.
the scratch on the print is now gone.

hmm ... should i try my luck with the service centre?
