The 3/info/olympus" target="_blank">Olympus 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3 is a single-lens reflex film system camera produced by 3/info/olympus" target="_blank">Olympus of Japan since the 80s. It is part of the 3/info/olympus" target="_blank">Olympus 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM system.
History
The 3/info/olympus" target="_blank">Olympus 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3 is a manual camera without automatic exposure modes, and an entirely mechanical shutter. Introduced in 1983, the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3 was the first of a new series of professional camera bodies designed to update the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-1 and 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-2. These new bodies, which continued with the more popular 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-4, included a number of refinements over their predecessors. The most significant changes made were to the metering system. The 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3 and 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-4 featured multi-spot metering in addition to the centre-weighted metering on the earlier bodies. This allowed the user to take a number of spot meter readings, all of which were used by the camera to calculate the correct exposure. The system also featured "highlight" and "shadow" buttons which allowed the photographer to identify parts of a scene that should be exposed as white or black respectively. The metering system used a liquid crystal display in place of the older match needle design of the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-1 and 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-2.
Other refinements were also present, including a faster maximum shutter speed of 1/2000 second and a built in flash hot shoe.
The 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3 sold in smaller quantities than its electronic sister, the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-4. This may be because the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-1n remained in production and offered an alternative mechanical body for the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM system at a fraction of the price, albeit with less sophisticated metering. After a relatively short production run, the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3 was discontinued in 1986. As a result, 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3 bodies today are much rarer than 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-4s, and those in good condition are highly sought after by collectors.
In 1995, the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3Ti was released, an improvement of the 3/info/om" target="_blank">OM-3, which was in production until 2002.
