I wouldn't say that I'm "the envy" of the neighborhood, but I *do* have
people come up to me and ask me what the heck I'm using when the
OM-2 with Winder 2 and the zuiko 200/4 is hanging from my neck.

I've had similar experiences. Seems 35mm SLRs are still equated with "professional" in most people's minds. If you're an amateur, you'd shoot with a P&S, wouldn't you? ;-)
