This has not been a problem with any single digit OM body since the OM-2(n) or with the OMPC. All these bodies use a partially silvered mirror with a submirror that directs part of the incoming light to the photo sensor on the bottom of the mirror box. No measurement is taken on the viewscreen. I don't know how the other double digit bodies work in this regard.

Isn't this the rule for every SLR unless they have a built in device to
*shutter* the eyepiece. I remember some N***, but surely some C*** like A1,
AE1 didn't have one.
