=======================================================================
Alan, 

OM-1(n) and OM-2(n) can use either linear or circular polarizer. OM-2SP
requires a circular polarizer to get an accurate display reading, in
either manual or auto mode, because of its semi-silvered mirror.
However, if you use a linear polarizer in auto, you will get correct
exposure even though the display might be out by a couple of stops.
