Sean, yes you can do that, assuming that the OM-2 has had a CLA (tuning the
meter, among other things.)
I quote from the SIF site:
"The longest guaranteed reproducable exposure time on the OM-2n is 2
minutes, independent on ASA speed, while the OM-2 has a long exposure limit
that varies with ASA speed (1 minute with 100 ASA)."

Lama, who just sold and shipped his OM-2 today.
