Olympus uses multiple flashes too, spread over a 1/40 second
interval. Olympus was clearly the first to implement it---I
am just not sure if they actually own the patent. When my
early assumption that they had invented TTL flash proved
wrong (TTL is Minolta-ware), I just learned to be a little
careful with my words. :-)
