The OM-4's averaging spot meter is linked up to the auto exposure mode,
which makes it very easy to use. You sample 3 or 4 appropriate parts of the
scene, and your exposure is set automatically for you. It's a very quick
and intuitive process.
I remember correctly the OM2sp will only give you spot metering in manual
mode. Obviously you can still calculate the average in your head, and set
the exposure accordingly, but the OM-4 is so much easier to use.
