Hi all,

I need a little advice.  I was out today and looked at both an OM=4 and 4t.
I want another body to go with (replace? back up?) my Om-1n and I like the
option of having spot meter.  But I've heard a number of people say that the
Om-4 is plagued with battery/electrical problems and that it is unreliable.
The two bodies I saw were in good shape, but the 4t was quite expensive.

What I need to know is, to begin with, whether the OM-4 is a good camera.
Or should I keep looking for a 2s?  Also is the 4t a significant improvement
over the 0M-4?  Should I spend the extra cash?

As I've already heard a couple of views on the issue, I realise that this is
somewhat of a loaded question.  But I'd like to  hear from some of you are
still using OM-4s.  Bottom line is that while I don't really want to throw
my money away on a lemon, I do like the features the electronic camera has
to offer.

Glen
