Does the OM2 unlock if you reset it?
If so, probably the batteries.
In the garden today too, butchering a hedge. Also put some crash protection on the bike.

No fair. On demand processing! "I'm just testing the machine, honest!"

No, no response from the check light and the reset doesn't unlock the shutter. Something is not right but I have three or four others so no big deal.

I tried another set of batteries and it works. The shutter reset button doesn't work for some reason though.

Weird. Maybe a dodgy contact under the top plate. Good that it works though.

Maybe, or just weak batteries. It will sit in the to do pile, needs a proper rewind crabk but apart from that its pretty usable.

I processed the OM10 film in work and scanned the negs. Pretty pleased with the metering. I did have a big scratch on three of the exposures though. Not sure if that was done in camera or the processor.

Looking good. First film I sent to Jessops was scratched to death

I don't use Jessops often, its cheaper to send them off, or if I need them with the hour I'll pop too Boots. Sorry Admin!

Not in Shrewsbury you won't. The Boots here has scaled it's service right back to our benefit.
