>From the Olympus OM FAQ file:
Note that Shoes #1, #2 and #3 are all threaded in the same
direction, so they are "interchangable" (i.e., if all you
want is to fire the flash, then a Shoe #1 can be put on an OM-2,
and likewise, by clipping the extra pins, a Shoe #2/3 will fit
an
OM-1). Shoe #4 is threaded in the opposite direction and
therefore can only be used with the cameras that were designed
for it (i.e., OM-1N and OM-2N).
You should be able to get a new shoe 4 for your OM-1n from B&H. The
last time I bought a shoe from them, it was $24.95. Their website is
