Well, Ok, I'll bite. What are the consequences of having a camera that has 
the "wrong" pressure plate? Since the pressure plates are removable, does 
that mean that if we wanted to use the 250 exposure back we'd have to 
transfer the plate? If I wanted a different back, say like to get one with a 
memo holder, can I just transfer the pp to the new back? A neurotic mind 
wants to know....

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I for one am damn glad that Clint is with 
us in addition to John H.! Clint, you are a wealth of information on the OM 
system.
