Nah, he's not a closet OM fan. He openly admits to loving the system -
or at least some cameras in the system. For example, in his Le*ca M7
welcoming speech[1], he says "My all-time favorite metering was that in
the late, lamented Olympus OM-4T. Much was made of that camera's
multi-spot averaging capability, but I never saw it that way . for me,
the OM-4T was a camera with center-weighted averaging AE that also had a
spot meter and AE lock combined in a single, separate
button. Marvelous. The next best thing is averaging AE with AE lock
activated by a half-press of the shutter button, as on the M7. It's
fast, easy, efficient, and a pleasure to use."
