I doubt Olympus puts that in writing anywhere. In fact, it'll probably be
difficult to find anyone in Olympus who even knows what an OM flash is :-)
If you want to assure yourself that a flash is truely safe, measure the
voltage across the hot shoe once it has reached full charge. If it's anywhere
near 200V-300V then don't use it with the E-1 or any other electronic cmaera.
