OM-4 production started at 1,000,000, but there are a few below 1 mil,
starting with 099XXXX (I had one).  I think the 2S also started at  1
million, but was produced for comparatively such a short time, that few
factory improvements were made along the way.  EX.  The flash ready LED
modification came out after the camera was discontinued.
