Hey Frank, don´t forget there is actually also a more affordable OM
camera with spot meter in manual. The Spot/Manual function of the
Om-2S/P is well suited for use with mirror lenses. Even though you
always have to meter in spot mode it is much less of a problem with a
super tele or mirror lens than with standard or wide angle lenses.
