The sync of the OM-4/2s/3/PC, et al, is controlled electronically. In
other words, the flash is fired by an IC that sends a pulse to an SCR
rather than simple blade switches closing.
--------------------------------------------
Does this imply that the flash will be fired in (about) 1/60 second
after pressing the shutter release regardless of whether a possibly
laggardly first curtain is fully open? If the first curtain was, say,
3ms slow in getting itself open would this show up as a shadow on the
frame in an OM-4 and perhaps pass unnoticed in an OM-1 or OM-2?
