I used a T32 on a shoe 4 on an OM-2n for many years and without taking any particular care. The shoe is cracked, but has never failed mechanically or electrically. Don't use flash much these days and mostly use OM-4(T(i))s and OM-PC, so that setup is getting a rest.

Another of my endless supply of questions for the experts on the List... what is a reasonable limitation on the load that a Shoe 4 can support on an OM-2n? Since apparently cracking of the Shoe 4 is commonplace, I have been trying to treat same gently on my new (to me) OM-2n; it came with two, both slightly cracked but functional. I get that sense that the shoe can easily handle the load imposed by a T20 (with a little care), but even the T32 seems almost too massive.........
