I'll back up what Moose says. My OM-1 went 25 years without a service, it
wasn't overworked and it wasn't feeling 'loose' or particularly noisy but I
could tell the difference after John H. had worked his magic and done a CLA
on it.
It's got that like-new feel to it again. Shutter has that 'snick'
sound. Wind feels smooth as the day it was made.
