That's odd.  I've been using my OM-4 for a year now, and have had no
problems whatsoever.  The spot metering is, I feel, terrific.  It's
hard to find a shot where there's not something in the view-finder
that yould like to have turn out medium grey.  My *only* complaint is
that it doesn't show the aperture in the veiwfinder (which has always
been a trait of Olympus for some strange reason).

I wonder if the problem wasn't really at the store?  The salesperson
at one of the local stores told me they've been very reliable -- and
that was when I had mine in trying a flash, so he wasn't trying to
make a sale.  I do remember mine doing some wierd things when the
batteries finally ran out recently; maybe your store was using weak
or defective ones?
