The small amount of current necessary to keep alive the circuitry which detects when you touch the shutter release to turn on the meter. In an OM-4T it's around 10uA, or less; not much, but enough to drain the batteries in a few months.


What other cameras in the OM series apart from the OM4Ti and OM3 have this battery drain phenomenon in the display off mode ??
