Hi,
I noticed something a bit unusual in my pictures and I'm a bit concerned about the lens in my Leica IIIF. It's the second roll of film I process and I have images with the left hand side sharp and towards the right slightly out of focus. At the beginning I thought it was something to do with depth of field but looking closely it doesn't matter the angle.

I only shot 3 rolls with this camera and on the first film everything seems to be ok.

Many thanks!

Check to see that you have fully extended the lens and it is in the locked position
