There used to be FAQ's on flashes on the net and, especially one on FP sync
flashes, but darn if I can't find it anymore. My short memory tells me only
Minolta has a sort of pre-calculation to shut off FP-flash, then just as you
say, the OM-4Ti has it's OTF-metering. Maybe others have more success in
finding this FAQ?
