>Hello Tomoko,

>here my answers to both your question-lists:
>
>> So far what we have discussed fall into three different models:
>>
>> 1. Budget OM-1 or 2x-- close to the OM2000 in price but need to be a real
>> OM in terms of compatibilities (winder/md 2, 2-4,13 screens, TTL?)
>> Around >$400? Would you like to buy such a camera in the next two
>> years?
>
Yes, if it had a metal shutter + higher sync speed
>
>
>> 2. OM-4 Budget --Made with non-titanium metal and some plastic to
>> make this an affordable OM-4. around $700 ± $100?
>> Would you buy such a camera in the next two years?
>
No
>
>
>> 3. OM-5Ti under $1500 --Most people seem to have expressed that this
>> is to be manual focus with more features than the OM-4Ti. Would you buy
>>such a
>> camera in 3-5 years?
Yes if it had AF, metal shutter + higher sync speed

>> Therefore please vote on the following:
>>
>> 1. Which one of the above (OM reissues with maybe some new features below
>> $500, ca. $700, and an OM-5 below $1500) would you buy in the next 2-5
>> years? Just one or all three?
>
>Only the OM-4Basic and depending on the price the OM-6.

>
>> 2.Would you like to have an autofocusing OM-x?
>
Yes, but not using that moving film plane idea - nasty. Needs new lenses/body.
>
>
>> 3. Would you be willing to have a somewhat larger OM body so that several
>> new features may be accommodated?
>
No
>
>
>> 4. What is the single most important feature of the OM body that you would
>> like to see retained? Just name one.

Metering System
All the best,
