If you ever decide to give up on your OM3, please post a note to the list. I
have a couple OM3's with dented prism housings. I guess I'm reducing the
odds of talking you out of your OM3 but the last one I got for $200 from
yaBe and included a nice motor drive 2. Working but ugly equipment often
goes very cheap.
