Go for the OM4T (used) or Ti, the spot metering system probably cannot be
bettered by any other camera (except 3ti); macro and close focus is an
Olympus specialty (as are microscopes). I too have an EOS (A2) and use the
OM4t for everything that does not require low light critical focusing.
Best Wishes, Mike
