If you like autofocus no doubt any of the many new systems on the market
like the A2E will satisfy you. But you did mention astrophotography. For
that you want a simple manual camera with mirror lockup, like the OM1. As
far as advanced metering goes, the OM3/4 series is even today as good as
anything out there...
