evening over kokubunji with a hint of trouble

Kokubunji, 2025.03.02

I took this photo with a new (to me) OM Systems OM-5. It took quite a bit of fiddling because the exposure on the camera was wrong and I had to faff about in Manual mode to determine just how off the exposure was. It turned out it was over-exposing by +1 1/3, which is not a little. I suspect that I didn't detect it in the store while taking some test shots because I was shooting things with lots of reflective surface that were fairly well lit.

The funny thing is, I've never had a hint of trouble with micro-four-thirds gear before.
