Wayne, put on auto its about the same as an OM-2. For program set the lens
to the smallest aperture (16 or 22, or whatever). Otherwise the same as the
OM-2, except the viewfinder meter readout is an LCD panel instead of a
needle and scale. You will find the OM-2s is a very nice camera, less
complex than an OM-4 but very capable. Remember the meter on manual is a
spot about the same size as the focus circle in the viewfinder, so point
that at the part of the image you want to determine exposure.
