Add to that that you can put the extra grip on the OM2s, which makes it into
a much better feeling camera in the hand, imo. With the extra grip on the 2s
it feels almost as secure in the hand as the OMPC. It still lacks that
little bump on the back for the thumb. Now if the 2s just didn't have the
silly timer switch right under your fingers - one problem the OMPC doesn't
have. The self timer switch on the 1n and 2n isn't quite as bad that way as
the 2s.
