That's why it's an excellent beginner's camera (beginning zuikoholic,
that is). Once one has a bunch of lenses and accessories and
sticky-magnet shows up, it's necessary to obtain one or more single
digit OM bodies. ;-)
Seriously, the OM-10 is a perfectly capable camera when working, but
nowhere near as well built, reliable and satisfying to use as an OM-2,
for the same general auto/manual functionality plus TTL flash or an
OM-4, to add spot metering.

I guess so -- I'm just rather disenchanted because the OM10 I had worked
just perfectly for a year or so, _then_ got sticky, and stayed sticky even
after a cleaning; had I not already got some lenses together and thus some
investment in the OM system, I'd have been very likely to call the whole
thing off and go for some new wonderbrick which at least would have a
warranty.
