I don't remember noticing my OM-2n feeling any rougher than my OM-1 (which I
don't have now) but it is much smoother than my OM-40, which also feels to
be more highly geared with shorter lever travel.
Leica rangefinder cameras lost the silky wind on feel of their earlier
models when they changed the gear wheels from brass to steel to better
withstand being motor driven. Have Olympus done something similar?
