You're right, Brian,
The answer IS no. What contributes to the confusion is Sunpak's instruction
sheet/manual that claims "complete compatability with all Olympus cameras."
Yes, they ARE compatable with all cameras- AT 1/60 SEC. They are not Super FP
compatable, as they are not Super FP flashes. Also- what Olympus does with
the 5 pin contact no one else can do with only 3 pins. Common sense here,
people!
