Bob,

I have a 55/1.2 and a 35/2 that cause the same problem with my OM4T. In my
opinion there is a problem with some fast lenses. It seems that closing the
aperture takes to much force for a OM4(Ti). My OM2 and OM1 work nicely with
these lenses and I have some other fast lenses that don't show the problem
with the OM4T.

I allways figured it was a 'normal' thing for old fast lenses (mine are
really worn out, no need to bother repairing these) but a 90/2 can't be that
old ...

pressing the depth-of-field preview button a few times in advance sometimes
seem to solve the problem.
