Hi Tom:

<< Well, I just bought an OM-2.  Didn't catch that the meter readings
are inconsistent. Oh well, only paid $57.  Maybe it will turn out to be
ok with fresh batteries.

The Virgo in me reads that as: "Non-linear response error in a
photocell. Requires photocell replacement." But the question is which
photocell? The one for the viewfinder readout?  Have the metering
checked at the film plane.  It maybe the film plane/shutter curtain
photocell and may not cause film exposures to be off in auto mode.

If my logic is wrong here, I welcome constructive criticism.
