John,
Not according to the sale info files. I quoteth:
"Other features that were new compared to the OM-20 is an extended ASA range
(up to 3200 instead of 1600), Program exposure (the same as on the OM-2SP)
and overridable DX-decoding that reads the film speed from the cassettes.
Last but not least the body is stronger (and heavier) than the preceding
amateur bodies because the top and bottom are made of brass instead of
plastic."
Basically, i appears that they stripped the OM concept bald with the OM10,
and gradually built it back up to the PC til it was almost like the
"professional" series.
