Skip,
Already seen this - Bernard Frangoulis posted a link to it. Following the
recommendation I've ordered the Uniross version - £50 less than the Oly
product (& better if the review is to be believed). If it incinerates the
camera I will let you all know :-)

Subject: [OM] E-1 - questions
Couple of basic questions from an E-1 novice:
I've noticed there are a lot of cheap 3rd party batteries advertised on
0-boy, anyone used them? Do they do the job OK or is it worth paying the
extra for the Oly version? Definitely need a spare battery of some sort.
Flash - in the manual there is a dire warning that some non-dedicated flash
guns may damage the electronics of the E-1. I was thinking of trying some of
the OM flashes (F280, T10, T20, T28 & T32) - anyone tried this? Any
problems? I did think that the instant feedback from the E-1 would be a good
way to experiment with flash more than I usually do.
Thanks - Martyn Smoothy
