The 3030 has a"special" sync socket, it's the same size as a ttl socket but
has a unique pin configuration.  You'll need a special plug and the FL40
flash, as regular TTL flashes will not be compatible.

| George,
|
| If it's anything like the C-3030 Zoom, you'll need a grip and TTL cord.
Does
| it have a TTL socket? If it needs the grip and cable to mate up with
Olympus
| own FL-40 flash, I have the part numbers and B&H Photo Video stock numbers
| on my web site on this page:

|
| Also, note that Olympus (for the 3030Z anyway) warns about using
non-Olympus
| flashes with their digital cameras. On some the voltage from the flash is
| much too high.

| I have just acquired an Olympus 2020Z digital camera.
| I cannot get the off camera flash to work. Do I need a special flash gun?
