Mark, didn't you forget to mention that connection of anything Olympus-OM to
an E-1 will void the warranty in Australia and require the miscreant to be
transported?
And Walt, did you realize that your purchase of an E-1 has now allowed
Olympus to release details of the E-2? Available next week, double the
resolution of the E-1, and half the price (trust me, Gordon Moore is an
impeccable source).
;-)
Congratulations on your brave step. Just don't ask *me* if it's forwards.

Amazingly the FL-50 with it's built-in wide adapter can cover the 7mm focal
length. I'm not sure about the FL-36.

Yup, all safe except for the QA300/310. You will need to switch to manual
mode on the E-1 to use them though.
