Thank you once again, C.H.

I am not using any MD, only Winder 2 and nothing in this (LNIB black) OM 1n.
I suppose you mean motor driven OM 1 & 2(n) in sequence mode, I use
the winders in single shot mode only, because they grip better in my
hands.

Yes, 1/3 might well be what I noticed between this wide-open flower
shot, and the following at 5,6 and 8 - judging by the red saturation
of the flower itself.

Next time I will load the OM 1n with Provia 100F @ ISO 200, so as to
reach 1/1000 more easily.
In fact, I've already used this machine @ ISO 200, but loaded with
Superia 200 (C 41), and didn't pay attention to the negatives.

Thanks again,

Fernando.
