37 TTL Direct "OTF" Light Metering The OM-88 uses a direct "OTF" metering method which is suited for metering on a wide range of subjects. It can measure the brightness of the subject directly on the film plane and control the exposure on a real time basis. This method was pioneered by Olympus. Since it can quickly react to any changes of light during exposure, it is convenient for shooting not only stationary objects, but also fast-moving objects. It also simplifies macro photography which has been considered difficult with regard to exposure determinations. Further, in combination with T-series flash units (T18, T20 and T32 etc.) or an F280, it allows you to take flash pictures easily in a fully automatic manner, including such sophisticated technologies as bounce or diffuse flash pictures.
