In response to Ray Moth....
In have an OM2SP and OM4Ti. The principal advantage I find personally of
the OM4Ti is the auto-spot, and there is something deeply satisfying about
taking 4 minute, auto exposures. Plus, I've had an F280 for 6 months and
I'm still waiting for the inspiration to actually do something interesting
with its super mode that couldnt be done with a T32.
I wear glasses and find the OM2SP display easier to see than the OM4Ti. I
want to increase the eye relief on my OM4Ti as per the FAQ but dont know
where to get the lens. Opticians in Stoke-on-Trent, UK just stared and
blinked at me when I asked, as though they couldn't wait for me to be
somebody else's problem:-)
Why is the OM4Ti eye relief so limited?
I have an OM2SP, possibly dirty inside, which has suffered from intermittant
slipping of the wind-on mechanism. However, I've only noticed it at
sub-zero temperatures so I attributed it to a reversible change in oil (or
filth!) viscosity. I suppose some metallic part could have shrunk though.
