Khen,

I am also a fan of the AZ330. I was working photo retail at the
time and that camera had absolutely no equal. I would have
bought one but the IS-1 came out and I went that direction
instead (with absolutely no regrets). I still have my IS-3 which
has such an incredible AF system.

Can you talk about the design of the OM-2S for us?  It remains
my most favorite camera of all times. Just like the OM-2N before
it, it is a camera that is responsive and doesn't get in the way
of the photographic process.  Yet the camea was built around all
new internals. Why did the camera not get a longer sales life
and why was it allowed to die without further upgrade?

Was the OM-2S just a quick response to the Canon? Was it the
product of an internal design dispute where some were for the
OM-4, but others were still wanting to push the OM-2 one more
generation?
