    @rolfmg I have no clue hahaha it was expired film but I never had sprocket leaks like this before ? Maybe the film has a light leak itself before I put it in the camera. ? Any ideas. ?

    @foranfilm It could well be, that the film was not properly transported on one side (either top or botton side); so the film may have got loose. but threaded again when cocking the shutter for the next shot? Not sure though. The Russian beauties sometimes behave like that - I have (sometimes) the same with my Zenit 11 - my Fed 5 is free from that behavior - but every 10th shot or so the curtain does not synchronize perfectly thanking with a thick bar on that very shot.
