Camera Talk

Been wanting to get caught up on all the cameras sitting around not having been tested, so I loaded the OM-1 up with some Kodak Gold 200, and mounted the newer 35-70 zoom (kit lens from the OM-PC).

The meter is recalcitrant to say the least. Only giving a reading when it wanted to, and those apparently were off (under) by a little over a stop. Some samples below, after some light post processing.

You may want to yank the bottom plate off and check the battery compartment contacts and wiring. Also the battery is no longer available and an adapter is required, which you can make yourself from a small loop of 2g wire formed into a ring, to take a LR44 battery.

Maybe my battery is too loose. Thanks for the hint, Graham.
