Walt, the OM-2 is a great camera. Easy to use on auto when you want, but on
manual its essentially an OM-1 with very minimal +/- viewfinder meter info.
Almost exactly the same size and handling as the OM-1, and just slightly
smaller than the OM-4 and its kin. My first OM was an OM-1 (that was all
there was in 1975) and then I got an OM-2n when they came out... I didn't
get the OM-4's until much later. Once you use and like the OM-1 you need to
experience the OM-2. Actually, you need one in chrome and one in black...
