I think the G is much better that the 10 , mainly for the modular shutter
with metal curtain posts (as opposed to the OM-10 serial number 100,000 to
1,999,999 with plastic curtain shafts), and the G works with Motor Drives,
OM-10 is hobbled against motor drive use (removing diode under motor drive
switch will "make" it work, but in sequence mode, after a few seconds, the
curtain shafts will melt.)
OM-G is real fast with a motor drive.  Oil on the magnet is still a problem,
though not as bad os an old 10.  10s over 2,000,000 have modular shutter
with metal curtain shafts.
PC is better than the G mainly for it's functionality. Mechanically it's
very similar.
