The EVOLT E-330 uses an electronic rather than mechanical sync circuit that is rated at 6 VDC maximum sync voltage. Because some studio flash systems have a sync voltage that exceeds 6 VDC, a PC sync jack was not incorporated into the camera to prevent users from accidentally damaging their cameras. In addition, the polarity of the studio sync pulse may be opposite the polarity of the EVOLT E-330 circuitry. Studio flash equipment should be connected to the EVOLT E-330 using the Safe Sync Hot Shoe to PC Adapter. The adapter protects the camera from excessive sync voltage up to 400 VDC, and automatically corrects sync pulse polarity. This item (#200329) may be purchased from The Olympus Store.
