Is it my imagination or is there a rash of OM-4T (not the 4) on the

Possibly just you. I've been looking for an OM-4T/Ti on the 'bay
for weeks now, and have been disappointed both by the low numbers
and the high prices. Criminy, gold's cheaper!

Their prices may not drop that much considering that now $2000 is
consided cheap for its replacment, a digital SLR, and $4000 to $6000
is the norm. $700 or $800 is a comparative bargain. And I think
there is a larger group out there like me who would not mind a
digital sensor, but do not want to deal with weight, size, menus,
clumsy controls, autofocus, winder, the cost of a half pound of
batteries and so on that comes with a digital camera.
Interesting Mamiya ad in the new Pop Photo showing a Mamiya 7II next
to a motorized SLR. The 7 is smaller and much lighter. And you can
get a 100 megapixel image from it with a 4000 dpi scanner.
