Well, call this a preference thing or something, but I rather like the
size and shape of the OM-3 with a nice compact wide-angle lens. I can
palm that camera. It allows me to get pictures in event shoots that
are normally outside the bounds of what is possible with a
camera-lens-grip-flash setup that rivals a Chevy Suburban in size and
weight.

There is also a very practical aspect to this too. My wrists can't
handle that kind of strain for long.

However, in fairness, the OM-3Ti with MD2, 35-80/2.8 and T45 flash
blows away almost anything for size and weight. Add a FlashBender and
things get really off the charts. But the usability is high.
