I have a lot of stuff but I have never had an OM-1 in my stash.  When 
shooting artwork I use 2 banks of Britek lights, and take readings with 
  a Sekonic L-328.  I tweaked the OM-2 needle position to be accurate 
with the 2-13, but it is not on the button with all lenses.  Outdoors I 
often shoot on auto.
