The 1N and 2N are the only cameras with shoe X all the time.

Subject: [OM] more flash questions
| Hello, I had a new idea yesterday about the flash circuitry on my OM
cameras.
| I recall that the "X-FP" switch only affects the socket, and that the shoe
| contacts remain in "X" only all the time on OM-2n and OM-1n. Which other
| cameras have this feature, the OM-2? The reason I ask is that this feature
| would be handy for firing a flashbulb off with the socket, and a shoe
mounted
| flash in the shoe at the same time with both of them correctly timed. Is
this
| really possible? Do these cameras effectively have two independent flash
| circuits?
