When I decided to get back into film with my OM10, it decided to throw a wobbler and destroy my first roll. No too bothered, wasn't much interetsing on it. Anyway, camera was kanckered, bought an OM30 as a replacement, stuck the Vivitar 24mm on the front and went through 2 rolls of film. They're sat here waiting for me to get developed. I noticed tht the exposure times seemed a little long on some of the shots but thought nothing of it. I'm just setting the camera up for some Kodak T-Max 3200 and the shutter speed was reading 2 seconds at ISO 1600 pointed out the window!
Turns out the lever that tells the camera the aperture from the lens on the 24mm isn't actually there, so he camera is just reading the light coming through the lens without knowing what aperture it's at, seems to be metering for around F32ish
So that's another 2 rolls knackered, and I need a new lens.
