As far as I know, these are advantages that an OM-3/T has over OM-4/T:
- all mechanical shutter. No battery, no problem. Then again, a spare pair
of battery takes up zero space...
- 3T can have the shutter in any speed under 1/60 under auto mode. Thus
allowing fill flash control. Then again, a modern Metz flash does some of
that too.
- No need for that spot memory button :-)
- Collector's Value
The CONS are
- no auto-exposure
- no self-timer
AFAIK, the shutter loudness and the mirror vibration issue, is exactly the
same as the 4/T.
Did I forget anything? If so, then really, it's that Collectors' Value
thing that makes a used 3 sells for about $600-$1000 whereas a used 4 sells
for about $250-$500, and a used 3T for $900-$1600 and a used 4T for $400-$650.
