It might be a bargain in the USA, but in the UK it costs =A3229.90 =
(about
$345), which is an awful lot of money for a standard lens.

Hi Alan and all,
well, the UK-price may be the indicator for what has to be seen as the
end of the final countdown for OM? Just few hours ago I read in a german

magazin an overview about MF-SLRs, as well the OM4 Ti/3Ti included, but
no technical data shown as there were about the other cameras.
Instead in a frame both cameras were presented separately, more or less
nicely described for what we like ´em, but introduced as available on
the market only from remaining stock, for Olympus definitely had retired
from dealing with manual SLRs.
So OM4 Ti/3Ti seem to be no longer in actual production.
Sorry for wasting bandwidth, if these are no news to you - or does
anybody know better?
Best regards
