>>  Hello again, Olympians,
>>
>>  (Or is that Olympusians?)
>>
>>  As usual when I hit a brick wall in use or Web research about my
>>  Olympus collection, I come to the experts.
>>
>>  I have an OM40 (which is the OMG in the U.S.) and a T10 Ring Flash.
>>
>>  The OM40 works fine with a T32, making it produce flashes of varying
>>  brightness (power/time) depending on f/stop and distance as it's
>>  supposed to do.
>>
>>  It does not seem to do this with the T10, which produces what appears
>>  to be a full-power flash no matter what the f/stop or distance.
>>
>>  Yet the T10 is really just a modified T32 power unit, as I understand
>>  it, and has the same 3-contact shoe and switch for contacting the
>>  three contacts in a Shoe 4 or my OM40.
>>
>>  I cannot find anything in any of the specs or instructions for either
>>  camera or flash on any of the usual suspect Web sites, or by
>>  Googling, which indicates which cameras the T10 is compatible with.
>>  However, since the OM40 is a subsequent development (and refinement)
>>  of the OM2 OTF technology, one would think that the T10 should work
>>  with it.
>>
>>  If so, that would seem to indicate that the T10 has a problem.
>>
>>  Any information, experience, advice or opinion would be gratefully
>received.
>>
>>  TIA and Cheers from the Antipodes,
