Hmmm....

I'll look for a 422 like Chuck suggested, and also look at a T32 as 
well.  Always wanted a T32 to fill in the gap between the T45 and the 
F280, and now they should be somewhat affordable.

Every once in a while I still use the OM's, so it would server 
double-duty nicely.  Like next month when I have to shoot a friend's 
wedding (it's a small affair, and they aren't expecting, nor can they 
afford, a full-on wedding photographer).

Thanks for the suggestions, guys.
