I guess so -- I'm just rather disenchanted because the OM10 I had worked
just perfectly for a year or so, _then_ got sticky, and stayed sticky even
after a cleaning; had I not already got some lenses together and thus some
investment in the OM system, I'd have been very likely to call the whole
thing off and go for some new wonderbrick which at least would have a
warranty.
I don't know how likely late-onset stickiness is to hit a given camera or
if I was just particularly unlucky, mind you.
