Hmmmm...

As a flash user, 1/250 sync would be by far my biggest priority.
Other than the slow sync speed, I am really quite satisfied with my 
2n. I could ask for a ttl socket but its not that big a deal.
Seeing that I can get a clean 2n body for <$300 I would be looking
for something below $500. Not much to pay for quality I know but I
don't need the fancy stuff like auto-bracketing right now.

If memory serves Olympus explicitly stated in some of their product literature
that convienient physical dimensions were a priority except in parts of the
system like the bellows, where performance was the sole design consideration.

Or words to that effect.
