It is more or less a wonderfully functioning collector's item. Almost
everything the OM3T can do, the OM4T can also do. Exceptions are (1) OM3T-
fill flash at a ratio, (2) OM3T-mechanical shutter at all speeds with
battery
failure and (3) OM3T-absence of self-timer. >>
Hi ?? & welcome to the list. Sorry I forgot your name.
Also, the 3Ti is the only mechanical camera which has TTL Flash capabilities.
The 3Ti will work in much colder weather than a 4Ti. i.e. dead batteries.
Think of the 3Ti as a new OM 1n and a 4Ti as a new Om2n.
Very hard to justify the USD $500 + over the 4Ti.
