The OM2 went on sale in 1975. It featured an automatic exposure (AE) system with an aperture-priority shutter. The OM-2 also had the world's first TTL direct metering system, which measures light reflected off the surface of the film. This allowed exposure control during shooting, and automatic TTL strobe flash adjustment using a specially designed dedicated flash. To develop the TTL direct metering technology, Olympus collected 35mm film from throughout the world and measured the reflection ratios for each roll. The results were used to determine the density of printing on the shutter curtain.
