Indeed, I have and use both. I suppose in fairness one should point out the
Leica 6.2 (which I think was mentioned in another post) is relatively
compact and also mechanical. Personally, I don't think it is as elegant a
solution as the OMs. And the metering system on it is just primitive
compared to the 3s and 4s.
