Shutter speed slightly off is a common problem for the old OMs, but usually 
within 0.3 stops at the high speed end. Of couse some may have larger shift 
but speed adjustment is not a very difficult work but do require lot of 
patience.

One point to note is the using of MD with 1n and 2n, the shutter speed can 
shift a lot at 1/250 and above. I found this on all 1n and 2n I have 
checked. This problem does not happen with 3 and 4.
