I have been always puzzled about some strange metering/exposure issue in my OM4T. In some conditions when the meter in the viewfinder indicates 1/30 or 1/60 I clearly hear that the actual shutter speed is much slower - 1/8 or even 1/4. I thought it was something wrong with the meter or the shutter. However, compared to handheld Gossen those exposure readings were correct. Hmmm. Today I suddenly realized that the actual exposure that camera is using is not what center weighted exposure metering shows in the viewfinder but what spot metering reads. Checked the reading from the spot meter - bingo. So, my OM4T does not shoot using center weighted mode, only spot (except in manual mode). It must be that the previous owner "fixed" this camera or is there anything I am missing in settings?
