If you're shooting in low/no light and want to "paint" with the flash, the
2/2N will do it.  See my sample at
http://www.zuiko.com/PAGE39.HTML

This was done with an OM-2 on a tripod, camera set to auto, lens set to f8,
T32 off camera, no cord, set to high regular auto.  I used the flash test
button and just kept firing from numerous angles until the shutter closed.
The film was Kodachrome 25.
