Hi Iwert,
Yes, all speeds from 1 second to 1/60 second can be used. Here's the 
explanation from the Olympus e-sif (Sales Information File) 

Best,
George

       Last but not least TTL "OTF" flash exposure with T series flashes and 
the F280 was added on the OM-3Ti. This works similar as the TTL flash on the 
OM-4Ti in Auto Mode, with one important exception: since the OM-3Ti is 
mechanical, all shutter speeds from 1 sec. to 1/60 sec. can be selected, and 
you can 
always be sure the flash fires and is synchronized; the OM-4(Ti) automatically 
switches to 1/60 sec and does not fire the flash when available light allows 
shorter shutter speeds. This means that with the OM-3Ti you have more control 
of the flash/ambient light ratio: by selecting longer shutter speeds the 
influence of ambient light is increased, by turning the exposure compensation 
dial 
the influence of flash can be increased or diminished.
The OM-3Ti is only available in black. The titanium top and cover are lighter 
(more like grey) than the OM-4Ti Black; the paint is also more durable.

Now we are at flash topics:

What exactly does the OM-3Ti with a flash attached and TTL activated?

It can't control the shutter speed, that is fixed by the ss ring, isn't it?

So it controls flash duration, and cuts the flash off?

And can I get nice results with shutter speeds over 1/60 for fill flash?

Any experienced members?

Regards,

Iwert.
