The OM-1(n) has a measuring range of EV 2 to EV 17 (ASA 100 with F1.4 lens).
ASA range 25-1600.
The OM-2n in Auto mode measures EV -6.5 to EV 18 (ASA 100, F1.2 lens); Auto
Exposure range 120 sec - 1/1000. In manual mode it is EV 1.5 to EV 17 (also
ASA 100, F1.2 lens). ASA range 12-1600. The original OM-2 has slightly
different specs; its longest exposure time depends upon ASA setting.
