Hi Rick,
Thanks for your advice on the film but by now I have covered all the variables that I could think of that might be causing the problem. I swiched from a lithium 3volt battery to the recomended two SR44 (Energizer 357), I tried shooting with T-Max instead of the Delta to rule our reflectance variations with any particuler film. The photos shot on Manual with the Cds meter off the ground glass have been accurate but all the AUTO shots still give me a completely over-exposed black negative as the shutter always stays open for several seconds. I guess I'll juat use this OM2n as an OM1 untill I can get the OTF meter fixed/ calibrated. I read somwhere that these cameras sometimes suffered from oil migrating to the shutter magnet. What I don't understand is why this would affect the shutter on AUTO but not on Manual. What do you think... any ideas?

Thanks Again!
