Subject: [OM] OM3 was: OM-4s and batteries
| What about OM3's. Being all manual shutters do they chew through batteries

| manual) so how can the half button press be disengaged? Also does it have
a
| baseline battery drain like the auto OM's? The FAQ doesn't really go into
| the 3 much in this sense.
