Yeah, you are better off with a clean 1N or 2N.

| OM2000 is made by Cosina, is mostly plastic. I absolutely believe you'd
be

| there in the price range you're looking to spend on a 2000. I believe
that
| a 2n that you'd acquire that's already 15 year old will quite conceivably
| out-live a brand new 2000.
|
| From what I've read in previous threads, I think you'd be well advised to
| steer clear of A*orama. I've had no experience with them, but several
list
| members have. I have dealt successfully with B&H on numerous occasions.
| Always a pleasant experience.
