there are only a few problems with the om3 that I can see
1, repair is expensive. The mechanical speed stuff under the mirror failed
on mine and it became uneconomical to fix it
2, no easy way to do night photography (I don't own a light meter)
3. not so easy to do point and shoot (especially with slide film)
4. no mirror or app prefire or self timer
I love my om3 and if I could get it working again for sensible money I
would be very happy...
