[OM] OM4 Lock Up

Thanks to everyone for their advice on battery problems with the OM1 -
having replaced the battery with the zinc air type, the meter now seems to
be reading fine. That's the good news....

Yesterday my OM4 locked up mid shot.

Nothing I have done, ie replacing the batteries, switching to manual/B and
back will free it. When you place the lever on battery check you get a an
intermittent "beep" which you can only stop by switching back to B or red
60, or taking the batteries out.

I'm not sure whether this is a similar problem to the one Tom Scales had
recently. If anyone can give me some suggestions I would be grateful.
Fortunately the camera is still covered by a 3 month guarantee which expires
in a weeks time, so I have notified my seller. I thought I would check with
the list before returning it. 

Camtech John are you out there?
