Just read the following in rec.photo.equipment.35mm:

"Hi there, people
I'm afraid but it seems to me that you are not correct :<(((
Olympus produce special "convertor" to mount different flash guns
instead G-40...on top IS 1, 2, 3 (in Europe - IS 1000, 2000, 3000).
I remember only that price for that "convertor" is very close to the
price of G-40.
You have to check the Cat. # with Olympus people.

I've never read anything about such a convertor. Anyone else who have? Not that
I'm especially interested myself since I'm quite satisfied with the performance
of my G40, but I think any unknown compatability between the OM and IS systems
might be of interest to several people on this list.
