The manual metering in the OM-2 is the same as the OM-1, except using
different battery voltages. One of the problems with the OM-1 is the CdS
cell becoming more non-linear with age, so I extrapolated that to the OM-2.
I have had a couple of OM-1's with bad CdS cells. I have never heard of
a silicon cell changing like that with age. Perhaps someone more
knowledgeable than me can inform us.
