Now his is interesting. I think this is the first time I've read this. If
it's true (which it should be regarding JH's tech reputation), has it found
its way to the FAQ ?
And can't caps with paint particles in the threads (isolating efect) be
cleaned with a steel brush, paint remover or something? And can paint
particles have additional effect on the notorious short battery life of the
OM-3 and OM-4? And does it also apply to the painted caps of the OM-1(n)
black or OM-2(n) black?
