What it is
{"overview":"The Olympus OM-4 is a 35mm SLR introduced in the 1980s as part of the OM system, sitting above the OM-3 as the electronically-controlled flagship of the line. As of 2026, clean working bodies tend to sit in the middle of that band, while tired examples with meter or electronics issues sell at the lower end; the OM-4 remains noticeably condition-sensitive when buyers assess what one is worth.","buying_guide":"The OM-4 is known for heavy battery drain on early bodies, so check that the meter responds quickly and that the LCD spot-metering display is complete and not faded. Inspect the shutter at all speeds, confirm the prism shows no desilvering, and test the self-timer and exposure compensation.
