Coo lumme John H, that's a difficult one! The only suggestion that I
can make, as a very unlikely idea, is that somehow you got the ISO
setting wrong on the Sekonic... yes, unlikely I know. However, I use a
308BII which invites me to use the wrong ISO quite easily.
Good luck
Chris

My OM4T has just been returned by the Canadian Olympus service /
repair facility in Toronto after a thorough CLA and shakedown. I have
been assured that shutter speeds have been calibrated to
Olympus standards, etc, etc.
I am confused as to the accuracy of the shutter speeds or at least the
shutter speeds I see through the viewfinder. Before being sent in for
service there was always a very close approximation between incident
light readings taken with my Sekonic L508, spot readings taken off a
gray card with the same meter, spot readings taken with the OM4T off
the same gray card, and the average reading after taking several
multi-spot readings with the OM4T through the viewfinder so as to
approximate 18% middle gray. Almost invariably the approximation was
within half a stop or less and as a final check it invariably accorded
with the "sunny 16" rule given the state of the ambient light.
