Hi. I've bought an om-2 and it looks fine, the light meter works fine in auto mode, but in manual mode the speed ring, from the point of view of the light meter, is always at 1/1000. I explain: the speed ring works fine, it sets the speed correctly (apparently), but the light meter don't respond to its movement. If I close the aperture the meter responds, so it seems that the speed ring is not moving whatever it have to move to be reflected at the light meter.
anybody have had the same problem? can it be difficult to solve? thanks
