Remember that OM used to make what they called "autocords" That enabled you
to connect from the camera to an Olympus flash. I used to have several, but
I sold them years ago.

Depends on how long that special cord is. :)
For off-camera, I'm using radio triggers, but then I have a flash
meter and I ain't afraid to use it. (Thanks WS, it works great!!!)
The T45, being in the side and up position is a little awkward for
today's style of placing the flash in-line with the lens. However, not
entirely bad if you get a little creative. I'm using that FlashBender
dohicky. With it mounted sideways to the flash and the flash turned
sideways (it's complicated--like "Pat" on "Saturday Night Live"), I
can have the flash above the lens in either orientation (like "Pat" on
"Saturday Night Live"). It took me a while to sort that one out.
