Olympus OM-PC, Instruction Manual

Page: 73 / 78

Q: The mirror does not spring back.
A: Check the batteries. If the batteries are in good
condition, and in case the mirror should not
spring back or the shutter should not close, the
safety mechanism will operate to return them
to their original position.
Q: The mark does not turn on when the pic-
ture is composed with the sun in a corner of the
picture frame.
A: If the sun is located in a corner of the picture
frame, exposure correction with the ESP meter-
ing is not effected. Because the four corners of
the picture frame have a reduced metering
sensitivity, the ESP metering need not be
operated.
Other cautions
• When the OM-PC is used with other brand
lenses, Olympus can not assume any responsi-
bility for poor image quality or other problems.
This Is particularly true when other brand lenses
are used in PROGRAM mode.
• The exposure value will shift on spot metering
with a linear polarizing filter. In this case, use a
circular polarizing filter.
• If the exposure mode is switched while the self-
timer is running, the shutter will trip.
• The DX ISO auto-setting is not effective when
the ISO speed window shows a number "800" or
larger. First, set it at "640" or smaller then adjust
for ISO auto setting.
• If you are not likely to use the camera for a long
time, remove the batteries before putting it away.
• The batteries that come with your camera may
not last so long as stated in the camera specifica-
tions because they are supplied for test at the
time of purchase.
