[OM] Re: OM-1 Problem

[John Hermanson]

Since it's the oldest type of OM-1 (note cutout on the black trim inside 
lens mount which falls inline between the 2 & 4 shutter speeds) it is 
one of the meter strings.  Without it, coupling ring may not returns to 
it's rest position or needle may not move properly.
