Posted on Sunday, June 17, 2007 - 02:10 am:        I've just acquired an OM10 from my friend.It wasn't been in use for a very long time.The shutter seems to work fine ,except for the battery heating up .Whenever i put in new batteries (2x LR44 1.5v),it would eventually heat up abnormally! then the power runs out... Can anyone knows what's the problem of my cam?   Docman Tinkerer Username: Docman Post Number: 13 Registered: 03-2007 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)

In any case, don't insert another set of batteries, you'll ruin them too.
