It also seems that the electronics of the OM2 series gets in the way of
creative fill flash. The electronics seem geared more to snap shots than to
serious portaiture, inmyopion. I was trying to decide whether to use the OM1
or the OM2 for creative fill flash. I didn't want to bung up my really nice
OM1 if I could use my "user" OM2 instead. I suppose I could always just use
the OM2 in manual mode. 

I need a beater OM3 for 100$!

Be seeing you.
