7. The film rewind knob does not turn when winding the film although the camera is loaded with film This indicates the film is not being wound be cause it has slipped out of the take up spool Load the film correctly again A dark shadow shimmers in the microprism collar or in the split image rangefinder in the center of the viewfinder This phenomenon will occur when changeable lens of F5 or slower is used or when the preview button is pressed with the aperture set to F5 6 or smaller However there is nothing wrong with the microprism The display in the viewfinder turned off while I was looking through the viewfinder A To conserve battery power it will automatically turn off after 60 seconds To turn it on again press the shutter release button lightly the auto mode the actual shutter speed seems to be slower than the one displayed in the viewfinder If the shutter is fired in auto mode with no film in the camera the shutter speed will be slower than that displayed in the viewfinder This is because the OM 40 PROGRAM uses an PO PO Light Metering that measures the light reflected off the film plane To test the shutter load unwanted roll of film that has not been developed or the test card that comes with your camera The film rewind crank won t turn Press in the film rewind button Do not force the rewind crank The film advance
