One more major difference between the two cameras. While they look and work
much alike, the OM 3 is a totally manual camera. You get all of the metering
wizardry of the 4, but you must set the camera. The shutter is mechanically
controlled. It has been shown to operate in more extreme conditions than the 4.
The batteries surely must last skads longer in the 3 than the 4, since no power
is spent controlling the shutter...

Toni,
If I remember the major difference between the 3Ti and the 4Ti is that the
3Ti will work if the batteries fail, but the meter wont. Also the 3Ti can use
the F-280 flash that syncs at all shutter speeds, just like the 4Ti.
On the 4Ti, it can be used if the batteries fail, but only on "B" and 60th of
a second. On the 3Ti all shutter speeds will work, which is a huge benefit if
your a Pro or in a situation were you can't get batteries. Remember an image is
always better than no image. On a Canon EOS 1n, if you lose your battery, your
done and no image is no picture.
One major difference is in the price, the 3Ti, is more money...
Sam....

I'd like to know how is the better camera, if the OM-4Ti or the OM-3Ti. I'm
going to purchase any of this ones, so any advice about will be well received.
Thanks in advance
