Dirk,

You can make _interesting_ portraits of people with a ring flash.  The 
result is very direct, harsh modeling with virtually no shadows.  Slap the 
subject against a wall or a backdrop and you'll get a very thin dark shadow 
outline around the subject.  Kind of a neat look.

Re the TTL metering on the -2n, I don't know.

Hey, i have a crazy idea. Can you make nice portraits of people (and I
guess animals too) with a ring flash? is there an oly ring flash that
will work with the ttl metering in my om-2n?


Be seeing you.
