We recently had a discussion of the relative (lack of) ease with
which multiple exposures may be taken with our beloved OM series.
I am pleased to report, after accidentally sticking the film release
lever on my OM-10 at a ball game last night that it is apparently a
piece of cake to get somewhere between 36 and 45 exposures on one
frame!
I was using my winder II, and neither the winder nor I realized that
the film wasn't advancing until I glanced down between innings to see
that I had taken 34 shots. Not wanting to be caught changing film in
mid-inning, I thought I'd squeeze off a quick series of shots to
finish the roll.
10 exposures later, I began to suspect something was amiss, which was
confirmed when I began to rewind the film and only had to turn the
crank a few times to rewind the roll.
Ah well, as I explained to my wife - I managed to capture an entire
inning in one shot!
