always check that the meter switch automatically switches from on to off
every time when firing the shutter. thats the most common problem with older
spotties. meter switch sometimes gets stuck on in error. that in turn
causes mirror to not rise fully and a partial unexposure of the film frame.
Thanks to all for your thoughtful suggestions.
From the variety of opinions, I see that there is no trivial solution.
Hopefully, I'll get some time to play with this shot soon to see how of some
suggested ideas would work.
