Shoe 2 will also fit an OM-1 if you cut the TTL pin off.

| I had quite a few conversations with the eBay lister.  He was really
| confused about what he had.  Especially since the OM-1 had a Shoe 2 on it.
| He did correct his listing to reflect that the OM-1 does not have auto
| exposure capabilities.  He still is confused about the Shoe 2,  I told him
| it likely had the "2" pin removed.

| I'm sorry but I can't see anything strange about that eBay posting.
| IMHO, the description seems to match an OM-1 and I don't see where it
| says anything about auto-exposure. The position of the switch is
| consistent with the layout of the OM-1 and so is the presence of the
| mirror lock control on left side of lens mount (when viewed from the
| front). The fim speed selector knob also looks like that of an OM-1.
| Please correct if I'm wrong.
