Hi Gary,

J,ai enfin reçu mon OM-2s on friday! I was excited like a little boy! It's in really good shape just like you said. Thanks!!!!

Of course, I had to put it to the test, so I ran to the freezer and took a Sensia II 200ASA (someone gave me 3 rolls of these...don't know if they're good...). In the previous week, i've downloaded the manual in PDF format and red it so I could be ready when th -2s arrived! So, I put my only Zuiko so far (50 1,8) on the body and was ready to go!

I took the first shot on Auto (a nice flower): INCROYABLE!!! The hole mechanism is so smooth compared to my om-10, I can't beleive this! I know it sounds weird but it was my first time with another Olympus body! After that, I tried the spot meter: cool! Can't wait to see the results... Finally, I tried a macro flash shot with my Tamron 90mm F2.5 (thanks Jaap) and my girlfriend's Vivitar 550FD (Thanks Tom Scales).

I didn't really tried the Program mode 'cause I didn't red about that so far, so don't know yet how it works. Well, sorry for that long Email, just wanted to shared my first impressions!

I will scan some slides as soon as I can...

Ciao!
