Thanks Skip.
I did find some cords doing a search on the Oly site but the multiple
flash question wasn't made clear. I sent a note to E1 support and asked.
We'll see what I get back from them and when.
I do this all the time with my OM-2 and OM-4. Set 2 flashes in umbrellas
and let them both be controlled by the camera. It couldn't be easier to
get good exposures and it's simple to move the lights to change ratios
without much thinking. From what I can figure out, I sure can't do this
with my D100. Sometimes it seems we're going backwards with our new
wonder-cameras...
