Hello Tomoko,
 
 here my answers to both your questions

 No
  
 > 2. OM-4 Budget --Made with non-titanium metal and some plastic to

 > Would you buy such a camera in the next two years?
 
 Yes. Would be a dream.
 
 > 3. OM-5Ti under $1500 --Most people seem to have expressed that this

such a

 No.

 OM-4 budget
  
 
 > 2.Would you like to have an autofocusing OM-x?
 
 No, Auto focus cameras are plentiful and it would be hard to play catch-up
with Minol... etc.  
 
  
 > 3. Would you be willing to have a somewhat larger OM body so that several

No, the big attraction of  the OM system is the compactness.  
 
 > 4. What is the single most important feature of the OM body that you would
 > like to see retained? Just name one.
OTF exposure.
 
 
 Best,
Ellis
