Even better! Oly put some good features into the C5050/5060/8080 cameras.

No, it is a mode I turned off. Actually it has a slave mode where it only fires a low power pulse to trigger a slave flash.

Slave triggers with external flash units work well as long as the camera's built-in flash is not using a pre-flash for red eye reduction or flash metering, which is the case with many digital cameras. Contax used to sell a flash bracket with a built-in slave trigger to use with their line of 35mm point and shoot cameras which did not have hot shoe or PC flash connection. Sounds like the Oly 5050 does not use a preflash, or at least it's a mode you haven't turned on yet.
