I like to see what people have to say about both film and digital. I use
both as do many others on this list. There will always be threads of no
interest to an individual and the delete key works very well for those.

That is all right. Lots of us on this list love OM cameras and many
people still use film. But OM cameras went away and the last 15 years
or so there was no further development. This was basically a hardware
list even to the name although general photography subjects were
never objected to that I remember except for the occasional proVelvia-
antiVelvia argument. It is only natural that as photography has moved
to digital that list members would be interested in the interesting
new hardware since the OM discussion over the years pretty well
exhausted that subject. I am sure that if you have a question about
your OM2 someone here will have an answer.
