It can be a practically invisible piece of dirt somewhere in the film
path of your camera, or an equally small piece of dirt (or, rather more
often, a crystal of dried processing chemicals) in the path of any
automated equipment at your lab. The lab, of course, will always claim
the problem is in your camera. I even had a hard time convincing one
lab the problem was at their end when the scratch showed on the unused
part of the film that never left the cassette while in my camera!
That's one reason why I shoot mostly slide film, nowadays, and get it
processed at a little dip-and-dunk lab with no automated equipment.
