Olympus ‘Terminates’ OM Series of 35mm Film Cameras

Olympus Optical Company has announced that it will cease production and sales of the OM-3Ti and OM-4 Ti Black bodies for its OM series of 35 mm single lens reflex cameras. After almost 30 years of successful sales of the OM system and accessories, the company is finding it increasingly difficult to find stable supplies of parts for the camera system, making it impossible to continue to keep the system on the market’. Olympus will continue to manufacture lenses and accessories, which will be available for current users who wish to purchase them until the end of March 2003.
