Yes, I think so. Which means it could still be the stop down lever itself,
but personally I still think it's the shutter. I'd have to review my
notes, but I believe I tested the OM-2S firing straightaway (i.e., not with
the timer/stopdown/MLU) and it was much smoother than the OM-1. But you
could still be right. It didn't seem really to matter. :-(
