Well, obviously I don't know... but... even as a Japanese export, if
packaged with multilingual instructions etcetera, the 'i' could still stand
for international (vice special packaging per country). Gee, I wonder how
much more I could have run on that sentence? The 'Ti' could also just have
been a convenient way to mark the change in approach, while meaning titanium
vice titanium international.
All I really needed to know was if they truly were equivilents. I just
bought a OM-4T champagne at Penn Camera. I hope to find a reasonably priced
F280 used somewhere to make full use of this baby.
