Dr. Black Tape would, as would anyone who understands that from 21-50 mm,
and in low light, the rangefinder has definite advantages over the reflex.
Also, the OM3 and 4 are quiet, but they still aren't anywhere near as quiet
as an M.

But Dr. Black Tape advocates forgetting prestige and focusing instead on
all-around utility.

And, yes, the OMs could all do with a softening of the edges. :-)
