Interesting. In what way do you feel the viewfinder image in the OM-1 is less
refined than in the OM-4Ti? I find the OM-1 finder image to be much nicer to
work with than the one in my OM-4. It's bigger and brighter (although the OM-4
is about equal in the brightness department with a 2 series screen). If you're
referring to the meter display, I agree the OM-4 display is second to none.
But making room for the display forced the smaller finder image. I guess there
are always tradeoffs.
