yeah, those are fine for learning. The om2k is all manual and has spot 
metering and the om10 is auto-only without manual adaptor. I think the 
om10 has some reliability problems with it also. They both work fine 
with zuiko lenses. of the two, i would go with the new om2k. an even 
better choice would be an om-1 in good shape however. But, this is just 
my personal preference.

Be seeing you.
