Sounds like the curtains went across without a slit, that is, the magnet did
not hold.

Subject: [OM] OM-2S problem


| I'm having a problem with my OM-2S and wondered if anyone could help.
|
| I'm using it with a Promaster 80-200 zoom and a winder 2. I recently shot
a
| roll of film through it and only the first frame was exposed. The other 23
| were blank. I shot another roll of film through it and the first 2 frames
| and the last one didn't expose, but all of the middle ones did.
|
| The film IS being taken up on the take-up spool, so I'm confident that is
| not the problem. Also, the aperature on the lens seems to be working
| properly. I did take off the back of the camera and (with no film) shot
| about 20 frames at 1 second. I noticed the first two times that it
appeared
| that the curtains went across at the same time, but the succeeding ones
| appeared to be correct (1 second exposure). Obviously, this is an
| intermittent problem.
|
| Anyone with suggestions?
