Yes, the governor in the OM-2S that slows down the shutter release slightly
does indeed give it a unique and pleasing sound. However, my *OM* "sexy
shutter sound" award goes to the mechanical shutters on the OM-1 and
OM-1n. Not having heard an OM-3 or OM-3ti, these too may qualify.
My all-time "sexy shutter sound" award goes to all but the highest shutter
speeds on the Zeiss Ikon Contax (II/III and IIa/IIIa); 1/100th and
slower. No mirror sound, just the shutter clockwork and shoop sound of the
metal curtains.
