I am new to film photography, having adopted my Mum's old Nikon FM2. I've successfully taken photos on this camera recently, but the last roll I received back was totally milky.

I don't know if I had the wrong ISO setting on the camera the whole time - the film was a Kodak T-MAX 400 black and white film - or if things went awry in the processing stage (I took them into a print studio).

I've attached a couple photos for reference, and a picture of one of the associated negatives. I've just loaded the same exact film into my camera again, and I really don't want to waste it. Any advice would be appreciated!

    \$\begingroup\$ How old was this film? Also, how was it processed? And what was the ISO setting on the camera? \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ It would also help to see a posted photo of a negative strip against a light, showing the rebate between frames and the sprocket strips. That would allow distinguishing between a negative problem (fog, for instance) and a printing problem (contrast set much too low). \$\endgroup\$
