1/60th is the flash synch speed with any Olympus T-series flash or a 3rd
party flash (Sunpak, etc.). ONLY with the Olympus F280 flash will the
OM-4T synch at all speeds. This is due to the special loooonnng series of
flash bursts the F280 puts out.

In addition . . .
(a) The F280 must be switched into "Super FP" mode.
(b) GN of the F280 plummets as shutter speed increases in Super FP mode.
[occurs with all FP flash systems, including the original
long-duration FP flash bulbs]
Before buying an F280 to use Super FP mode, look at its specs to ensure it
will work for what you have in mind to use it for.
