The lack of an indication of shutter speed can be a hinderance unless you're so
used to the camera and are using it day-in day-out. And it's not as "snappy" a
camera as the OM-2. I use my 2N more than my 1N. But if you *forced* me to give
one of them up, I'd give up the 2N.

The 2N is a lovely camera, and I much prefer the needle to little red lights.

If you're not in to setting the shutter speed manually, the 3/Ti would be
pointless.

Poor OM-1. Your first SLR, but not your first love. I do hope it can't hear you!
