Re: Processing errors -- help

It is known that some camera bodies (modern plastic type usually) do not block 
IR radiation. This will result in the film fogging if left long enough. I've 
used various Canon bodies (plastic type) but, never had any trouble with this.

Not too sure if this applies to you or not, hope it helps.
