Don't get enamoured about the differences between the T and Ti designations.
They were only different because Olympus sold cameras with different names in
different parts of the world to foil grey marketers. There's no difference
between a T and a Ti camera.
T = United States
Ti = Rest of the World
It's certainly nothing to pay more for.
