Nicholas,

Also consider the OM2000, which at less than $200US new and with warranty
is quite a good buy.  With its spot meter in addition to center-weighted
averaging meter it offers somewhat more sophistication than the OM-1.
Slides shot with this body are indistinguishable from those made through
the same glass on my OM-2S.

Have fun.
