Black line shadow on all images NOT VIGNETTING

SquattingFox — Fri, 18 May 2018 13:49:35 GMT

Im getting these shadows or what looks to be ghosting from the shutter. I have tried multiple lenses and multiple program settings. There is a ghosting that happens in the same spot every time but there is a hard shadow that seems to switch sides.

As far as I can tell there is nothtin on the lens but it seems to me tht the shadow is something to do with the shutter. Has anyone experiecned this before?

You have a jammed shutter curtain blade. The focal plane shutter is a series of blades that fold up & down (like blinds). One of your blades is jammed.

The camera needs service to correct this.

Contact Canon support and make arrangements to send it in.

I don't know if a shutter blade is jammed or not but it has failed. They can not be repaired. They need to be replaced. What camera?

Double check that your lens hood is on correctly.
