I have recently bought a 1957 Yashicaflex TLR. The images are largely fine, but if i crank the sliders in NLP (brightness 0, lights 0) it exposes a number of weird splotches. Do any of you know what might be going on here? (ignore the dust on the scan, i’m aware of that)

Can you see those splodges on the actual negative? It might be better having a look there with a magnifier to see if they are embedded in the negative itself.
