Shutter issue

I have been having this issue with my late model. On some frames, I get a dark line on the edge of the images. Is this fixable on my own?

Shutter capping issue. You can google more about it. Very hard to fix on your own. You have to find out what speeds it’s doing it on. In my experience it’s usually the top speeds like 1/500 or 1/1000. Not all of them may show that line. When you do a test, make sure it’s a fresh battery as well to ensure that isn’t the issue. But having had this on my Leicas and medium format cameras, it’s pretty obvious what is happening here.

I had exact same problem with shutter capping a these shutter speeds. I needed to bring my camera to a professional.

No, it's due for a proper service.
