Grumble. The reason I bought the E-410 is because it's a nice, small,
easy-to-handle package. Adding a grip and a cable defeats that purpose.
(Adding an external flash does, too, to some extent, but the grip really
bulks things up.)

I've got a Vivitar 5600 with the OM TTL module and both heads (high power
zoom and wideangle). Any guesses as to what I'd need to do to use it on the
E-410? Do I need to tape over the two contacts in front of the shoe sync
pin?
