Really? I thought all OM bodies are center-weighted.

Yes, it is.
The OM 2n on Auto mode - OTF reading is average, not center-weighted.
Should I've had a 2s, 4, 4Ti or perhaps having switched the 2n to Manual
mode, exposure would have shifted to the shadows a little bit.
At the risk of burning the setting Sun too much, or blurring the shot.
This sort of 'shooting into the Sun' sunset photographs have made me wonder
if an average reading is, counter intuitively, more appropriate than a
center-weighted reading. Just because it's the way we humans are blinded
when looking at a sunset.
Certainly, I'll try to lift the shadows in PS - good idea, Ken. Thanks a
lot. Despite this scan matches the Ektachrome quite right (it's not the same
scan I uploaded to fb, made another one after I saw too much magenta there),
the Coolscan picked up some detail buried in the buildings 'round Piazza San
Marco. Worth a trial !
Fernando.
