I also believe the rewind/ASA/exposure comp dial was redesigned on the
OM-4T(i). Also on the OM-4T(i) the battery check turns itself off after 30
secs. The battery check on the OM-4 stays on indefinitely. I still think the
best solution for this was the spring loaded battery check position on the
OM-2S.
