:According to my Shipman book in the OM-3 section:
:"With Olympus T-series flash units, normal auto or manual modes may be
:used.
(..)
:However, in the metering chapter of Shipman it plainly states:
:"The sensor in the camera body is not used for automatic OTF control of
:T-series flash."
:So, I wonder, what is it that causes the T-series flash on auto to
:measure its exposure as would appear from the description above?



In Olympus terminology, "Normal Auto" means plain old computer flash
(controlled by using a sensor in the flash).
TTL "OTF" Auto Flash is supported by the OM-3Ti but not by the OM-3.
