Yes, except for the OM-1 that originally used a PX625 mercury battery. The
OM-1 now needs to be modified to accept a 357 silver battery, or you can
use an MR-9 converter that is the same size as a PX625, but takes a 357
battery and changes the voltage from 1.55 down to 1.35v.
Olympus originally recommended a lithium battery for the OM-2, but withdrew
the recommendation. 357's are the best for OM-2/3/4.

Roger,
Thanks for that! - does the same apply to the others in the OM range?
(I have OM2s and and OM4 that don't get used as much).
Regards,
