A big reason the OM2S shutter etc. sounds different from the OM-10 is
because of the extra vibration damping in the OM2s. Yes, the OM-10 makes a
better defined, 'harder' clunk - but believe me, that translates into far
more sharpness killing vibration than the 'sloshier' sound of the later
single digit OMs.
