I agree with the failure rate issue on the OM-PC. It's unfortunate, as their
feature set and handling make them very nice cameras. But I won't buy or
recommend them anymore due to the propensity for circuit degredation. The OM-4
is also on that list of cameras to avoid, and I don't buy those either. I had
problems with a couple OM-4's and they left me camera-less in a time of need.
