Francois,

You'll love the 2s.  One of my favorite bodies and when I travel with two,
it is almost always one of the two. It just 'fits'.

As for Program mode, I rarely use it. I prefer 'OM-2' mode, so I have a
little more control. I like the spot mode too.  Overall, it is a 'baby 4'
and I love it and know you will too.

Tom
