Just developed the B&W negs and the exposures shot on manual are spot on!
The auto exposures are TOTALLY overexposed (as one might imagine). One other
note is that on auto the meter indicates the proper shutter speed, it just
does not appear to fire at that speed. It appears that there is some problem
with the OTF cells or circuit.
