I've had this on OM2SP and OM2n. In the 2n, it affects *only* auto
exposure and gives excessively long exposure times. In the 2SP, the
exposure is far too short. I can't remember whether it affected manual
as well in the 2SP. <<

John,
It is interesting that I left the OM2SP at a camera repair shop twice for
the erratic exposure problem to no avail.  I happened across the cure by
accident but I suppose it just goes to show that I should have been
compensating more (grin).  Unfortunately, it was stolen last year.  I miss
that camera.
