Dear Lars and other low light level photographers,
I think the OM2 and the OM2 series cameras excel at low light level.
I have used my OM2s on various microscopes to obtain correct
fluorescence
microscopy exposures where an OM4T failed due to its 15 second cutoff.
I have heard that the OM2 with its two SBC's is the champion of low
light level
OTF (off the film) exposure. The Kodak Ektachrome P1600 film is
excellent
for low light level color photomicroscopy.
Hope this helps,
Hank Hogan <hogant@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
PS
I've got some new hummingbird photos on my website at
http://flzhgn.home.mindspring.com/hek2.htm
The photos of the hummingbird feather were taken with an OM2s fitted
with the
Zuiko 50mm Macro focussed at infinity on a Tripod looking into the
occular of an American Optical Dissecting microscope. The film was
expired Ecktachrome 200 which had "lost its punch" but Adobe Photoshop
(LE) saved the day, once again.
