Olympus OM-4, underexposer

Well, the OM-4 seems to be a persistent underexposer.

All of my holiday snaps from the OM-4 are underexposed by about 2/3rds of a stop.  This is pretty annoying, but certainly not the end of the world as I only have two rolls of film.

Even underexposed I find that there is still plenty of shadow detail for me to pull up.  In future I’ll adjust the ASA rating to compensate… but I’m not too sure how this will be handled when I come to use the spot metering, maybe I’ll have to manually underexpose by 2/3rds of a stop?
