Chris,
        The only way to tell the difference between the OM-2 and 2n manual is
to look at the picture of the camera inside. They both say OM-2 on the
outside, all that I've seen any how.
        Check the contacts on the shoe 3 to see if they are clean. Other wise
it's the calculator panel.

Regards,
Larry
