need help with my OM2N...

[sinned79]

Hi all,

After getting my first RF, have not been touching my OM2N... yesterday brought it out to shoot and notice something "unusual"... was shooting with a Arista Premium 400 film pushed to 1600 (I set the ASA to 1600 on my OM2N)... after I fire each shot... the mirror refused to go back to its position and I need to turn my dial to reset to release it.

under what circumstances causes this? It used to be fine...

Battery problem?

Battery problem?

hmm that is what I am suspecting too... i also notice the meter (which needs battery to work) is like not working too. Let me try replacing the battery and see if it works.

your om2n is fine...just needs battery and more love.
she is pissed that you neglected her and spent too much
time on the Hexar RF and wonder what is the fuss all about
with the rit 1.5....

ya most likely batt problem, to confirm this, u can still shoot at 1/60 i think even if the batt is down.
