Don't count on it, I don't think you can easily implement OTF metering with
metal vertical travelling shutters.  To be fair though, the E-1's flashes
are far more advanced than any of the simple T-series OM flashes.  The
results from the FL-50 (and probably the SRF-11 and STF-22 macro flashes)
are stunning.  The only major disadvantage is the cost, they're incredibly
expensive!
