Battery drain can still be a problem with the 4T or 4Ti if something pushes
on the shutter release button and turns the meter on. /jim

I thought, that it was only unfortunate OM4's (non-Ti) that suffered a
battery drain?
I've got an OM4 with *old* circuitry, which doesn't suffer from battery
drain (I get about 1 year of intensive usage of that body). Someone asked
about the s/n a while back on thatone (forgot whom). The no. is
1082xxx. Were some s/n's more or less likely to suffer battery drain than
others?
