Hello all...

I'm going to be expanding my list of OM bodies soon & would like everybody's opinion on which to buy. I'm planning on using the new body primarily for macro work with bellows, extension tubes, etc...
some studio, some feild use as well.
I think it'd have to be between a 2n, 2sp, 3T, 4, and 4T although other suggestions will be appreciated.

What I need:
-Very reliable TTL/OTF metering with good T-flash performance (may also use some off-brand flashes). -Shot bracketing (something more accurate than the matched needle on my OM-1's).
-Manual as well as automatic exposure.
-cable release port.
-NO DOUBLE DIGIT OM's (bad experiences with macro sharpness using OM-PC)

What I can do without (even though it'd be nice to have them)
-Self timer
-2 series screens
-Flash-ready LED
-Titanium body

Keep in mind that I'm looking for the best buy that encompasses what I need. Money IS an object, as I have to justify my 4th OM body as more than a list-inspired fetish purchase & more money left over means more Zuiko stuff later.

Thanks for the help,
-Mike
