My electronics knowledge is limited to failed GCSE level, and the price of a donor body OM4 (and hoping it’s not gonna have the same issue in the near future) doesn’t really work out cost wise.
It’s expensive, but it should keep going for another 30 years when it’s fixed

Ok you obviously know what you are talking about and you are also obviously a fan of Olympus single digit cameras.
I'd just say if somebody that's apparently rather new to this would ask me what SLR to get I would personally direct him into the Nikon / Canon direction for reasons already mentioned because it's maybe less of a hassle, and cheaper.

Sounds about right, it’s costing me the best part of £350 to fix my OM4 Ti, purely because replacing 30 year old electronics is pretty difficult these days
