I seem to have an issue with the OM1n. Seems to have been around for a while and I was hoping it would resolve itself but it hasn't. If you look at the top left quadrant you can see a black line on each neg. I thought it was a hair in the camera but I cannot see one, neither in front or behind the shutter. Would welcome any thoughts. It doesn't matter which film I use the issue is now always similar and on most frames.

it does look like a hair...
Suspect it is the likes of a hair in there somewhere, rather than any kind of camera fault. Smaller apertures will make it more obvious. If I remember my school physics and optics correctly, it was a very long time ago, things are inverted by the lens, so it would be on the lower right of the frame inside.
If your camera has a bulb mode, so you can keep the shutter open by holding down the shutter release, or keep it open with a locking cable release, then that could be used to give a clear view through the area. Just make sure you don't let the shutter close whilst there's any digit or tweezers poking about in the (temporary) gap.
You probably know all that. If so, you have my sympathy... for what it's worth. Looking forward to your big show through here in the East, at Eden Court.
Good luck.
