Only in the broadest sense of not being black or silver. The OM-3T(i) is a
subtle gray, somewhere between matte and
shiny, low sheen might be a good description. There's a special something
(glow?) about it that is very rich looking. As
handsome a camera finish as I've seen.
The OM2000 is also a fairly attractive color, dark, slightly bronze, very
different from the 3T(i). The surface sheen,
though, is from a thin plastic layer/coating, which isn't very durable and
doesn't wear in a particularly attractive
way. Body, top and bottom plates are plastic, nice enough, but nowhere nearly
as solid as the titanium top and bottom
and cast light alloy body of the 3/4T(i) bodies.
I have an OM2000 at hand, but the 3T(i) description is from memory.
