I expected you will disagree. :-)

My assessment is based on the slow flash sync speed and 1/2000s max shutter; 
high vibration from the aperture closing mechanism which render the 
excellent OM200/4 almost useless and also affect the other lenses to a 
lesser extend. There are battery leakage on many OM3,4. The high shutter 
speeds of OM1/2 went slower when using motor driver/winder.
