Were you shooting w/flash?  If so, depending on the version of OM-10 and
type of flash you have, you might need to set the camera on "Manual Adapter"
mode (not "Auto"), and set the Manual Adapter (if one is attached to the
camera) to "30" or remove it entirely.  Otherwise you risk "catching" the
closing curtain at higher shutter speeds.
