I had better be, given the price charged!
My local Olympus-pusher seems to consider the OM3Ti one of a very few
cameras worth preparing for Greenland (arctic) conditions, a process
involving re-lubrication. He also seems to think that's the only reason
to get one. I'm not sure I entirely agree with him on that last point,
although the listed price is outrageous around here.
