-TRUE flash sync speeds faster than 1/60.
-Aperture in the viewfinder information.
-Fill-flash ratio control.
-1 second mirror pre-fire.
I'm with you up until here. The rest of this is for the flash-and-trash
shots, and not the contemplative and pure photography that Olympus has
been capable of inspiring. Below are accomplished by the photographer,
not the camera:
-Program modes.
-Auto film loading.
-Auto ISO detection.
-Infrared remote control.
-Autofocus.
-Matrix metering.
-High-point viewfinders.
This is one thing that I miss from the F-3, but a good cable release and
a stop watch work well also.
-Manual shutter speeds slower than one second.
I have been looking at other camera systems recently to figure out what
will replace my Oly stuff when it self-destructs. Sadly, there isn't
anything out there that I feel comfortable with, or compares to the
petite dimensions of OM. I know the stuff I got will last me until
eternity, and I have no problem letting Oly get onto bigger and better
things...
Bob - the only other camera I might need is an M6 - Gries
