Albert, I do not think I have heard a convincing argument from you on why
you want to get a MF camera. I mean, there's nothing wrong with spending
your money on whatever you want, but think about the #1 thing that MF gets
you - big negatives and higher print quality.
OK, from what I understand, you are very happy with the sharpness of your
Zuiko 50/1.8 and the Tokina 90/2.8, so what exactly would a MF gets you? I
went through similar exercises a few months ago. My main criteria are sharp
pictures in hand held shooting in low light wide apertures. I am happy with
my decision. I just thought that you should quantify why you want a MF
before getting one.
Remember you were almost ready to chuck that OM-1 when it turns out to have
a faulty meter!
Of course, if the reason is simply that you want one, that is fine too. My
point is: clarify your expectations, so you won't be unnecessarily
disappointed.
Best,
