Various theories. The crucial info is simple. If you get one without 
cracks and use it for any length of time with a flash on it, it will 
then have cracks.

Not generally available new, but new old stock still shows up 
occasionally here,  on the 'Bay and elsewhere. I've never heard of any

I used 2 different OM-4s today, one to take a roll of slides of images 
from books for a professor friend's lectures and one to take some 
outdoor pics of flowers and such.
