We analyze the possibility that the decay {Omega}{sup {minus}}{r arrow}{Lambda}{ital K}{sup {minus}}{gamma} can be used as an alternative experimental procedure to determine the {Omega}{sup {minus}} magnetic moment. Using the soft-photon approximation we derive a model-independent expression for the angular and energy distribution of photons. We find that this observable is sensitive to the {Omega}{sup {minus}} magnetic moment when photons and kaons are emitted collinearly.
