43's and µ43's

This cord allows me to use an older Olympus 43's flash (FL-36R) with a µ43's camera (E-M5). Works perfectly and allows all features of both to work seamlessly together.

Not sturdy enough for the real world

Bumped the flash unit (FL-36) and broke the mounting foot off of the upper cable end. Repaired with epoxy and much more sturdy now. I will purchase another and give it the epoxy treatment BEFORE I use it.

Good - could be better

It helps a lot with lighting in some macro shots. However, the cord's a bit short and and the plastic covers for the connecting ends seem a little flimsy. Overall, it increases my flash options quite a bit.

Ok, when you don't have a choice

I've got two of these. The plastic foot on the extension end has broken on both. Fortunately, the metal nut allows it to still be fastened to my flash bracket. Works well, but breaks easily.

Not for the Pro.

I own three of these. Not because I need three, but because the shoe mount keeps breaking. I think that the FL-50 flash is too heavy for the small plastic shoe. It breaks off when I'm making a bounce adjustment. I now use a ProMaster OM TTL Cord that I purchased localy. The ProMaster has a better shoe, but the electrical connections are touchy. This is just another disapointment in Olympus products for the professional.

Attaches to the hotshoe of your digital camera and permits you to use FL-20/FL-36/FL-40/FL-50 Flash or standard type flash with most external flash brackets. The bottom of the hotshoe that holds the flash has a standard 1/4" tripod socket thread
