I think if it's working okay, don't get a cla. You will get a light leak
with the bad foam though.

Subject: [OM] To or not to CLA that is the question
|
| I have an OM 2sp. I am the original owner. I think the camera was
purchased
| in late 84 or early 85. I could probably find the receipt if it matters.
|
| The camera receives regular but low usage (around 3 to 5 rolls of film a
year).
| It has never been CLA. The seals on teh back are turning to mush but still
work.
| I had the shutter checked at the photo show last weekend (Hunts in boston)
and
| they guy there said it was dead on as was the meter.
|
| I really like this camera and would be very upset if anything happened to
it.
| Is there any harm in NOT having it CLA? Is there any harm in having it CLA
?
|
| Given that the camera appears to be in perfect working order do I really
want
| to risk having it taken apart to be cleaned ?
|
| I do know that a few grains of sand from time to time has gotten into the
| camera but it doesn't seem to be too bad...
