ash can not be used.  
# Cautions  
• Image size and quality for photographs are independent of movie frame size.  
• The autofocus and metering used in movie mode may differ from that used to take  
photographs.  
• The R button can not be used to record movies in the following instances:

device will rise and noise and colored fog may appear in images recorded at high ISO  
sensitivities. Choose a lower ISO sensitivity or turn the camera off for a short period.

Setting the image aspect  
You can change the aspect ratio (horizontal-to-vertical ratio) when taking pictures  
using live view. Depending on your preference, you can set the aspect ratio to [4:3]  
(standard), [16:9], [3:2], [6:6], or [3:4].  
Display the live control (P. 20) and select the aspect ratio item using  
FG.  
1
Use HI to select an aspect ratio and press Q.  
2
# Cautions  
• JPEG images are cropped to the selected aspect ratio; RAW images, however, are not  
cropped but are instead saved with information on the selected aspect ratio.  
• When RAW images are played back, the selected aspect ratio is shown by a frame.  
% Tips  
• For information on cropping existing photographs or changing their aspect ratio, see  
“Editing still images” (P. 67).  
ISO sensitivity  
Increasing ISO sensitivity increases noise (graininess) but allows photographs to be  
taken when lighting is poor. The setting recommended in most situations is [AUTO],  
which starts at ISO 200 — a value that balances noise and dynamic range — and then  
adjusts ISO sensitivity according to shooting conditions.  
Display the live control (P. 20) and select the ISO sensitivity item using  
FG.

$ Notes  
To cancel the activated self-timer, press the jY button.  
• During sequential shooting, focus, exposure, and white balance are locked at the rst  
frame (during [S-AF], [MF]).  
# Cautions  
• During sequential shooting, if the battery check blinks due to low battery, the camera  
stops shooting and starts saving the pictures you have taken on the card. The camera  
may not save all of the pictures depending on how much battery power remains.  
• Fix the camera securely on a tripod for self-timer shooting.  
• If you stand in front of the camera to press the shutter button halfway when using the self-  
timer, the photograph may be out of focus.

Noise in images  
While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on-screen. These phenomena  
are caused when current is generated in those sections of the image pickup device that  
are not normally exposed to light, resulting in a rise in temperature in the image pickup  
device or image pickup device drive circuit. This can also occur when shooting with a high  
ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce this noise, the camera activates  
the noise reduction function. [Noise Reduct.]: g“Customizing camera settings” (P. 81)

• For information on ash bracketing: g“FL BKT (FL bracketing)” (P. 58)  
# Cautions  
• This does not work when the ash control mode on the electronic ash is set to MANUAL.  
• If ash intensity is adjusted on the electronic ash, it will be combined with the camera’s  
ash intensity setting.  
When [w+F] is set to [On], the ash intensity value will be added to the exposure  
compensation value. g“Customizing camera settings” (P. 81)  
Using external ash units designated for use with this  
camera  
Optional external ash units designated for use with this camera support a wide variety  
of options for ash photography, including automatic ash control, super FP, and  
wireless ash control (P. 93).  
Other external ash units  
Observe the following precautions when mounting an external ash unit not designated  
for use with this camera on the camera hot shoe:  
• Using obsolete ash units that apply currents of more than about 24V to the camera hot  
shoe X-contact will damage the camera.  
• Connecting ash units with signal contacts that do not conform to Olympus specications  
may damage the camera.  
• Use only with the camera in shooting mode Mat shutter speeds slower than 1/180s and  
at ISO settings other than [AUTO].  
• Flash control can only be performed by manually setting the ash to the ISO sensitivity  
and aperture values selected with the camera. Flash brightness can be adjusted by  
adjusting either ISO sensitivity or aperture.  
• Use a ash with an angle of illumination suited to the lens. Angle of illumination is usually  
expressed using 35-mm format equivalent focal lengths.

# Cautions  
• When recording a movie, you cannot change the settings for exposure compensation,  
aperture value, and shutter speed.  
• If [Image Stabilizer] is activated while recording a movie, the recorded image is enlarged  
slightly. Even if [Vertical IS] or [Horizontal IS] is selected, the setting for [Auto] is applied.  
• Stabilization is not possible when the camera shake is excessive.  
• When using a lens with the image stabilizer function, turn off the image stabilizer function  
of either the lens or the camera.  
• When the inside of the camera becomes hot, shooting is automatically stopped to protect  
the camera.  
• With some art lters, [C-AF] operation is limited.  
• Cards with an SD speed class of 6 or above are recommended for movie recording.

# Cautions  
• We recommend using a single group of up to three remote ash units.  
• Remote ash units can not be used for second curtain slow synchronization or anti-shock  
exposures longer than 4 seconds.  
• If the subject is too close to the camera, the control ashes emitted by the built-in ash  
may affect exposure (this effect can be reduced by reducing the output of the built-in ash  
by, for example, using a diffuser).

Noise reduction is activated  
• When shooting night scenes, shutter speeds are slower and noise tends to appear in  
images. The camera activates the noise-reduction process after shooting at slow shutter  
speeds. During which, shooting is not allowed. You can set [Noise Reduct.] to [Off].  
g“Customizing camera settings” (P. 81)  
The date and time has not been set  
The camera is used with the settings at the time of purchase  
• The date and time of the camera is not set when purchased. Set the date and time before  
using the camera. g“Setting the date/time” (P. 7)  
The battery has been removed from the camera  
• The date and time settings will be returned to the factory default settings if the camera is  
left without the battery for approximately 1 day. The settings will be cancelled more quickly  
if the battery was only loaded in the camera for a short time before being removed. Before  
taking important pictures, check that the date and time settings are correct.  
Set functions are restored to their factory default settings  
When you rotate the mode dial or turn off the power in a shooting mode other than P, A,  
S, or M, functions with changes made to their settings are restored to the factory default  
settings.  
Image taken appears whitish  
This may occur when the picture is taken in backlight or semi-backlight conditions. This is  
due to a phenomenon called are or ghosting. As far as possible, consider a composition  
where strong light source is not taken in the picture. Flare may occur even when a light  
source is not present in the picture. Use a lens hood to shade the lens from the light source.  
If a lens hood does not have effect, use your hand to shade the lens from the light. g  
“Interchangeable lenses” (P. 100)  
Unknown bright dot(s) appear on the subject in the picture taken  
11  
This may be due to stuck pixel(s) on the image pickup device. Perform [Pixel Mapping]. If the  
problem persists, repeat pixel mapping a few times.

Cleaning and storing the camera  
Cleaning the camera  
Turn off the camera and remove the battery before cleaning the camera.  
Exterior:  
• Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is very dirty, soak the cloth in mild soapy water  
and wring well. Wipe the camera with the damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth. If you  
have used the camera at the beach, use a cloth soaked in clean water and well wrung.  
Monitor:  
• Wipe gently with a soft cloth.  
Lens:  
• Blow dust off the lens with a commercially available blower. For the lens, wipe gently with  
a lens cleaning paper.  
Storage  
• When not using the camera for a prolonged period, remove the battery and card. Store  
the camera in a cool, dry place that is well ventilated.  
• Insert the battery periodically and test the camera's functions.  
• Remove dust and other foreign matter from the body and rear caps before attaching them.  
• Attach the body cap to the camera to prevent dust from getting inside when no lens is  
attached. Be sure to replace the front and rear lens caps before putting the lens away.  
• Clean the camera after use.  
• Do not store with insect repellent.  
Cleaning and checking the image pickup device  
This camera incorporates a dust reduction function to keep dust from getting on the  
image pickup device and to remove any dust or dirt from the image pickup device  
surface with ultrasonic vibrations. The dust reduction function operates when the  
camera is turned on.  
The dust reduction function operates at the same time as the pixel mapping, which  
checks the image pickup device and image processing circuitry. Since dust reduction  
is activated every time the camera's power is turned on, the camera should be held  
upright for the dust reduction function to be effective.  
11  
# Cautions  
• Do not use strong solvents such as benzene or alcohol, or a chemically treated cloth.  
• Avoid storing the camera in places where chemicals are treated, in order to protect the  
camera from corrosion.  
• Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty.  
• Check each part of the camera before use if it has not been used for a long time. Before  
taking important pictures, be sure to take a test shot and check that the camera works  
properly.  
Pixel mapping - Checking the image processing functions  
The pixel mapping feature allows the camera to check and adjust the image pickup  
device and image processing functions. After using the monitor or taking continuous  
shots, wait for at least one minute before using the pixel mapping function to ensure  
that it operates correctly.

(estimated).  
• Do not attempt to use chargers not specically designated for use with the supplied  
battery, or to use batteries not specically designated for use with the supplied charger.  
# Cautions  
• There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with the incorrect battery type.  
Dispose of the used battery following the instructions. “Battery Handling Precautions”  
(P. 114)  
Using your charger abroad  
• The charger can be used in most home electrical sources within the range of 100V to  
240V AC (50/60Hz) around the world. However, depending on the country or area you  
are in, the AC wall outlet may be shaped differently and the charger may require a plug  
adapter to match the wall outlet. For details, ask at your local electrical shop or travel  
agent.  
11  
• Do not use commercially available travel adapters as the charger may malfunction.  
Interchangeable lenses  
Choose a lens according to the scene and your creative intent. Use  
lenses designed exclusively for the Four Thirds system and bearing the  
M. ZUIKO label or the symbol shown at right. With an adapter, you can  
also use Four Thirds System and OM System lenses.  
# Cautions  
• When you attach or remove the body cap and lens from the camera, keep the lens mount  
on the camera pointed downward. This helps prevent dust and other foreign matter from  
getting inside the camera.  
• Do not remove the body cap or attach the lens in dusty places.  
• Do not point the lens attached to the camera toward the sun. This may cause the camera  
to malfunction or even ignite due to the magnifying effect of sunlight focusing through the  
lens.  
• Be careful not to lose the body cap and rear cap.

Principal Accessories  
Mount adapter  
Mount adapter allows the camera to be used with lenses that do not conform to the  
Micro Four Thirds System standard.  
Four Thirds lens adapter (MMF–2)  
The camera requires MMF-2 Four Thirds lens adapter to attach Four Thirds lenses.  
Some features, such as autofocus, may not be available.  
OM adapter (MF–2)  
Use with existing OLYMPUS OM System lenses. Focus and aperture must be adjusted  
manually. Image stabilization can be used. Input the focal length of the lens being used  
in the camera image stabilization settings.  
Remote cable (RM–UC1)  
Use when the slightest camera movement can result in blurred pictures, for example  
for macro or bulb photography. The remote cable attaches via the camera USB  
connector.  
Converter lenses  
Converter lenses attach to the camera lens for quick and easy sh-eye or macro  
photography. See the OLYMPUS website for information on the lenses that can  
be used.  
Use the appropriate lens attachment for SCN mode (f, w, or m).  
Macro arm light (MAL–1)  
Use to illuminate subjects for macro photography, even at ranges at which vignetting  
would occur with the ash.  
11  
Microphone set (SEMA–1)  
Produces higher-quality recordings than the camera’s built-in microphone. The  
microphone can be placed at a distance from the camera to avoid recording ambient  
sounds or wind noise. Third-party commercial microphones can also be used  
depending on your creative intent (power supplied via l3.5mm stereo mini-plug).  
Electronic viewnder (VF-2)  
Electronic viewnders can be used to view the shooting display. This is convenient  
when you are in a very bright location, such as under direct sunlight, where it is difcult  
to view the monitor, or are using the camera at a low angle.  
Camera grip  
You can replace the camera grip. To remove the grip, unfasten the grip screw.

External ash shooting  
With this camera, you can use one of the separately sold external ash units to achieve  
a ash suited to your needs. The external ashes communicate with the camera,  
allowing you to control the camera’s ash modes with various available ash control  
modes, such as TTL-AUTO and Super FP ash.  
An external ash unit specied for use with this camera can be mounted on the camera  
by attaching it to the camera’s hot shoe. You can also attach the ash to the ash  
bracket on the camera using the bracket cable (optional). Refer to the documentation  
provided with the external ash units as well.

This camera uses a lithium ion battery  
specied by Olympus. Do not use any other  
type of battery. For safe and proper use, read  
the battery's instruction manual carefully  
before using it.  
Do not touch electric contacts on cameras  
and interchangeable lenses. Remember to  
attach the body cap when removing the lens.  
Before storing the camera for a long period,  
remove the battery. Select a cool, dry location  
for storage to prevent condensation or  
mold from forming inside the camera. After  
storage, test the camera by turning it on and  
pressing the shutter release button to make  
sure that it is operating normally.  
If the battery's terminals get wet or greasy,  
camera contact failure may result. Wipe the  
battery well with a dry cloth before use.  
Always charge a battery when using it for  
the rst time, or if it has not been used for a  
long period.  
The camera may malfunction if it is used in  
a location where it is subject to a magnetic/  
electromagnetic eld, radio waves, or high  
voltage, such as near a TV set, microwave,  
video game, loud speakers, large monitor  
unit, TV/radio tower, or transmission towers.  
In such cases, turn the camera off and on  
again before further operation.  
When operating the camera with battery  
power at low temperatures, try to keep  
the camera and spare battery as warm as  
possible. A battery that has run down at  
low temperatures may be restored after it is  
warmed at room temperature.  
The number of pictures you can take may  
vary depending on the shooting conditions  
or battery.  
Always observe the operating environment  
restrictions described in the camera's  
manual.  
Before going on a long trip, and especially  
before traveling abroad, purchase extra  
batteries. A recommended battery may be  
difcult to obtain while traveling.  
Do not directly touch or wipe the image  
pickup device of the camera.  
Monitor  
An organic electro-luminescent display is used  
on the rear of the camera.  
When the camera will not be used for an  
extended period, store it in a cool place.  
Please recycle batteries to help save our  
planet’s resources. When you throw away  
dead batteries, be sure to cover their  
terminals and always observe local laws and  
regulations.  
Prolonged display of a single image may  
burn the image into the display, resulting in  
decreased brightness or mottling in some  
areas of the monitor. In some cases this  
effect may be permanent. Image data are not  
affected.  
Caution for Usage Environment  
In the unlikely event of the monitor breaking,  
do not put the organic substance into your  
mouth. Any of the material adhering to your  
hands, feet, or clothing should be rinsed off  
immediately.  
To protect the high-precision technology  
contained in this product, never leave the  
camera in the places listed below, no matter if  
in use or storage:  
• Places where temperatures and/or  
humidity are high or go through extreme  
changes. Direct sunlight, beaches, locked  
cars, or near other heat sources (stove,  
radiator, etc.) or humidiers.  
A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom  
of the monitor, but this is not a malfunction.  
12  
When a subject is viewed diagonally in the  
camera, the edges may appear zigzagged on  
the monitor. This is not a malfunction; it will  
be less noticeable in playback mode.  
• In sandy or dusty environments.  
• Near ammable items or explosives.  
In places subject to low temperatures, the  
monitor may take a long time to turn on or its  
color may change temporarily.  
When using the camera in extremely cold  
places, it is a good idea to occasionally place  
it in a warm place. An monitor exhibiting poor  
performance due to low temperatures will  
recover in normal temperatures.  
• In wet places, such as bathrooms or  
in the rain. When using products with  
weatherproof designs, read their manuals  
as well.  
• In places prone to strong vibrations.  
Never drop the camera or subject it to severe  
shocks or vibrations.  
When mounted on a tripod, adjust the  
position of the camera with the tripod head.  
Do not twist the camera.  
The monitor is made with high-precision  
technology. However, black spots or bright  
spots of light may appear constantly on the  
monitor.  
Due to its characteristics or the angle at  
which you are viewing the monitor, the spot  
may not be uniform in color and brightness.  
This is not a malfunction.  
Do not leave the camera pointed directly  
at the sun. This may cause lens or shutter  
curtain damage, color failure, ghosting on  
the image pickup device, or may possibly  
cause res.
