If you are mounted on a tripod, take a cable release and possibly a
remote cord with you if you want to achive film wind on without
touching
the camera set up. Here's how you do it:
Screw the cable release into the shutter on the body - set body to B
Attach the remote cord to the winder / md setup
Expose your frame with the cable release. Once you close the shutter,
fire the MD / Winder (best to have it set in single mode) by either
Remote Cord or gently pressing on the Winder's / MD's Shutter release.
The Winder / MD will detect that the shutter has been fired, but the
film has not been wound and the shutter has not been cocked. So it
will
do that for you, anticipating the next exposure (of course, again via
the cable release - and here the cycle closes)
OM Gear is pretty clever stuff, eh ?
Bests, Jan

B26) What shutter speed do I get with an OM-2(N) fired with a winder
or
motor drive when the shutter speed ring is set to B?
1/500th sec.

The problem relates to how Olympus designed the MD's and Winders. On
many systems, the film does not advance to the next frame until you
let
up on the MD/Winder button. The OM system does not work that way.
The
film advances to the next frame as soon as the shutter closes, whether
it's in Single or Sequence mode. IMO this is an advantage, but it is
at
the cost (trade-off) of not being able to use the "B" shutter speed
setting. See the "Main Characteristics" text in the eSIF for the MD
1,
MD 2, Winder 1, and Winder 2:

Also looked in my Winder 2 manual under its specs. It lists the
usable
shutter speeds for the OM-1[n], OM-2[n] and OM-10. In manual exposure
mode, all were 1-1/1000th . . . NO "B." What the manual doesn't state
is what happens if you do use the "B" setting.
The "B" on all the single-digit bodies is mechanical. The MD/Winder
lets up on the shutter release mechanism inside the camera as soon as
it
has been actuated so it can get on with winding to the next frame as
soon as the shutter closes . . . whether or not you're still
depressing
the button on the MD/Winder handle. Clint or John H. will have more
details. My best educated guess is this all happens in about 1/500th
second!
