OM-2 spot?!! Does anyone own one?

[EcoLeica]

HI, I have just won a OM-2 spot of a local auction site for about $30 with case. It was very much an impulse buy seeing I already have a wonderful nikon FE. Just wondering if anyone owns one and can tell me of their experience. It looks so mice and I use to love Zuiko lens!

yup i've got an om-2 spot although i havent used it since picking up an m7 about 4 months ago.
its a lovely camera. small, light, and zuiko glass is gorgeous. the only problem i have is that it seems to eat batteries like crazy...so be sure to have an extra set with you when you're out shooting!

enjoy your OM!!!

I presume you mean the OM-2S Program:

Wonderful camera. Olympus' hat-trick in offering a Program-mode body that worked with nearly all OM lenses without a lot of head-scratching, spot metering...and maintained the same form-factor as previous OMs. Also introduced a comprehensive but non-visually-fussy in-finder LCD exposure display.

And there's more, but the thing to do now is load it up, and head out woth it.

Great great camera 😉 The only complain I have is the weird double mirror slapping noise, but wth, it's a great shooter 😉
