Make sure bottom cover screws are tight and take shutter speed dial off
B position. In manual, all you should see is the dashes going up and
down as you change f stop / shutter speed. Center the top dash between
the pointers. In auto you see shutter speed scale, top dash indicates
what ss will be chosen at that stop. No f stop info is displayed (in
any OM body of this type).
