Hm-m--m. My OM4 is working fine, but I find that I need to remove the
batteries when I am not going to use the camera for a period of time (a
couple of months or more), else when I pick it up again they will be dead.
Switching it to manual before putting it on the shelf does not change the
situation. Is this common, or does this mean that the camera really needs
to see "the doctor"?
