What could you possibly have been shooting in vegas that an OM-2 with any
lens couldn't handle? 1/1000 @ f16 and you're overexposed? Using slide film
with an asa of 1000?
BTW, an OM-2 that is properly setup, set on auto, has a 'secret' top shutter
speed of 1/2000 th. That is, if, when on auto, the needle is pointing to
1000, when you open the lens one more stop, shutter will fire somewhere
between 1/1500 - 1/2000th.
