"When set for manual exposure control, the OM-2N metering pattern 
is center-weighted, using the CdS sensors in the viewfinder 
housing.

"When set for automatic, using OTF metering by the silicon sensors 
in the camera body, the metering pattern is full-frame averaging.

"The viewfinder display is always operated by the center-weighted 
CdS light-measuring sensors even when the camera is set for 
automatic operation."
