The A1/A2 offer a superimposed image of the histogram on the
BEFORE the picture is taken.  This real-time display is
recalculated many times per second. It's acutally quite
important because the EVF doesn't give you a warm/fuzzy with
regards to highlight and shadow details.

With the OM-4(T(i)), we have multispot metering.  You can
simulate a poor man's histogram in manual exposure mode by
spotting high values, low values and a couple of various
midtones.  Knowing that generally the exposure latitude of most
of our films is +/- 2 stops, you adjust the exposure so all of
the dots land within the +2 and -2 marks.

You know what's scary?  I've already taken almost 4% of the
total number of pictures of the OM-2S with my new A1.  And it
has already paid for itself with pictures sold!
