Hi
Finally got round to using the OM4 that I purchased over a year ago and really enjoyed using it.
I used an old reel of Fuji 400 that had expired some years ago (2006 or so) and hadn't been looked after storage-wise.
Got the prints back - just the kids in the garden really - and a few are ok but quite a few are very grainy and some seem to show odd marks. Now I reckon this is the film being out of date, but I also want to check the meter on the camera.
So what's a good way of checking the meter against another camera?
Also, is it likely to be the old film? (don't have images to upload as only got the prints).
Thanks a lot
PS using the OM4 was a hoot! Had a great time using it and its so compact!
