>> Hello everyone,
>> I'm having trouble getting a flash to work on my OM-1MD with shoe-1 and a
>> T-20 flash, and was wondering if someone here could help touble shoot the
>> problem. The flash works fine on my OM-10, so I have ruled out the flash
>> unit itself as being the problm. I' ve tried two different shoes with the
>> same results, the flash will fire only once in a while. If anyone could
>> tell me how to test the camera itself, and the shoes so I can track down
>> the problem, it would be greatly appreciated.
>>
>> Thank you, Darin.
