Question on RTF flash usage with SF1/SF1n

[Joe Wilensky]

The SF1/SFX and SF1n/SFXn cameras, the series that introduced the RTF 
TTL flash to the SLR world, were nevertheless criticized (in reviews, 
at least) for the limited film range the flash was useable with: ASA 
25-400. Does this mean that the flash won't fire at all with ASA 800 
film in the camera, for example, or that it will fire but the 
exposures will be a stop overexposed? And if overexposure is the 
case, would exposure compensation take care of the problem, at least 
where flash is the dominant source of light in the scene?
