Yes, I'm jealous, I need a new up to date mechanical camera from
Olympus to support my OM lenses. I'm very unhappy with the bug of the
OM2s and OM4, 4Ti, here I mean the slow speed auto exposure problem.
My latest OM2sp start to show the problem of my 2sp sold 10 years ago,
the speed below 1/15s start to increase exponentially. i.e. 1/8s
actual 1/4s, 1/4s actual 0.7s, 1/2 actual 1.xs, a few second actual
shutter never close. I seen this problem with another OM4, my current
OM4Ti Black... Now I only got a good OM4 and a OM2n to work for night
shoots (in auto mode). The biggest problem is the local OM service
center don't know how to repair them, they even said my 4Ti has no
problem on their tester.
Seeing the features of the FM3a, I think it will be very expensive, at
least more than the current FM2n, seems not a student model. I don't
feel I need a wonderbrick film camera, I love to see a camera like our
OM4Ti design with a digital back.
