The key thing that the OM2000 is missing that the OM-1 has is interchangeable
focusing screens. These are really a must have for doing astrophotography.
I also understand that when the OM2000 is used in bulb one of the LEDs stays
lit, so for long exposures you need to take the battery out (I believe the
LED will even fog the film on very long exposures).
