Anyone got anything nice, fully functioning and Canon FD? Or anything interesting really that I can pair with some nice glass, not looking to break the bank.

Sorry I meant to say it's fully retracting at every speed. Which led me to thinking it was out of sync with the shutter.
And true re. servicing. An excuse to get something a bit nicer now.

Hi all,
I recently purchased a 1984 Canon T70 that I really like and have enjoyed exposing the first roll a lot. I picked up the prints to find a black bar across a third or half many of the exposures. See below:
I can say with confidence that images 6 through 24 were taken at 1/1000 (perhaps one at 1/500 but certainly no lower) save image 13 which is was taken portrait (the bar looking thing at the bottom is a wall). Images 1 through 5 are 1/60 or 1/125, no bar present.
In the lower image there are three exposures, one in a cafe at 1/60 or 1/125 and two outside at 1/1000, to better illustrate the issue.
Am I right in saying the mirror is out of sync with the shutter and not retracting fast enough at high shutter speeds? If so, any idea of a fix? Would a service cure this?
Many many thanks in advance for any help/tips/advice!

For what it's worth I live in Dublin and I know what people in your ear are getting at but doing the Clockwork Orange thing would be no issue in Ireland whatsoever.

Fun as heck this. Perfect for blasting about in the summer months.
58cm-ish, I can take proper measurements if someone wants. One ding on the DT and one on the TT but as everyone knows an IRO frame without at least a couple of dings is an affront to nature. Anyone who's had one of these can attest to how good they ride. Just needs some straps and a fork top cap if you're fussed. Crankset is functional but not the best, probably from a Create or similar.
