It is also effective to compose the shot by holding the
camera vertically to focus, and then returning to the
horizontal position to take the picture.
The C (Sport) mode uses a fast shutter speed
and can reduce the blur incurred by a moving
subject.
● Taking pictures at a high ISO sensitivity
If a high ISO sensitivity is selected, pictures can
be taken at a high shutter speed even at locations
where a flash cannot be used.

● Taking pictures using exposure compensation
(p. 38)
The subject is not in the center of
the frame
Adjust the brightness while viewing the screen for
taking the picture. Normally, taking pictures of white
subjects (such as snow) results in images that are
darker than the actual subject. Use the exposure
compensation to adjust in the positive (+) direction
to express whites as they appear. When taking
pictures of black subjects, on the other hand, it is
effective to adjust in the negative (-) direction.

“Taking sharper pictures”
● Taking pictures with the optical zoom
Avoid using digital zoom (p. 22, 49) to take
pictures.
● Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity
If the picture is taken with a high ISO sensitivity,
noise (small colored spots and color unevenness
that were not in the original image) can occur, and
the image can appear grainy. The resulting image
is grainier than with low ISO sensitivity as well.

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 wrung well.
Caution:
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced
with the incorrect battery type.
Dispose of the used battery following the instructions.
(p. 84)
Monitor
•
•
Power consumption by the camera varies depending on
which functions are used.
During the conditions described below, power is
consumed continuously and the battery becomes
exhausted quickly.
•
Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
Lens
•
Blow dust off the lens with a commercial blower, then
wipe gently with a lens cleaner.
•
•
The zoom is used repeatedly.
Battery/USB-AC adapter

•
•
The camera is connected to a computer or printer.
Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left
dirty.
•
•
Using an exhausted battery may cause the camera to
turn off without displaying the battery level warning.
The rechargeable battery is not fully charged at the time
of purchase. Use the supplied F-2AC USB-AC adapter
(hereafter referred to as USB-AC adapter) to charge the
battery before use.
When the included USB-AC adapter is used, charging
usually takes approximately 3 hours (varies on usage).
The supplied USB-AC adapter is for charging and
playback only. Do not take pictures while the USB-AC
adapter is connected to the camera.
The included USB-AC adapter is designed to be
used only with this camera. Other cameras cannot be
charged with this USB-AC adapter.
Do not use with other devices.
For plug-in type USB-AC adapter:
Storage
•
When storing the camera for extended periods, remove
the battery, USB-AC adapter and card, and keep in a
cool, dry place that is well ventilated.
Periodically insert the battery and test the camera
functions.

Connecting the camera to a computer
Using an SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card
The battery can be charged by connecting the camera to
a computer.
A card (and internal memory) also corresponds to the
film that records images in a film camera. Otherwise, the
recorded images (data) can be erased, and retouching is
also available with the use of a computer. Cards can be
removed from the camera and exchanged, but this is not
possible with the internal memory. Use of larger capacity
cards enables you to take more pictures.
Using an optional USB-AC adapter
An F-3AC USB-AC adapter (available separately) is
recommended if the camera will be used for extended
periods.
SD/SDHCC/SDXXC card wriite-proteect swwitch
Note that the power cable supplied with the USB-AC
adapter is for use exclusively with the USB-AC adapter.
Do not use with other devices.
The SD/SDHC/SDXC card body has a write-protect
switch. If you set the switch to the “LOCK” side, you will
not be able to write to the card, delete data or format.
Release the switch to enable writing.
Using your USB-AC adapter abroad
•
The USB-AC adapter can be used in most home
electrical sources within the range of 100 V to 240 V 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 USB-AC adapter may require
a plug adapter to match the wall outlet. For details, ask
at your local electrical shop or travel agent.
LOCK
•
Do not use travel voltage converters as they could
damage your USB-AC adapter.

• Never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.
• Do not leave the camera in places where it may be subject
to extremely high temperatures.
• Always store batteries out of the reach of small children. If a
child accidentally swallows a battery, seek medical attention
immediately.
• Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate and, in some
circumstances, cause the camera to catch fire.
Do not use the USB-AC adapter if it is covered (such as a
blanket). This could cause overheating, resulting in fire.
• Handle the camera with care to avoid getting a low-
temperature burn.
WARNING
• Keep batteries dry at all times.
• To prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, or causing a
fire or explosion, use only batteries recommended for use with
this product.
• When the camera contains metal parts, overheating can
result in a low-temperature burn. Pay attention to the
following:
• When used for a long period, the camera will get hot. If you
hold on to the camera in this state, a low-temperature burn
may be caused.
• In places subject to extremely cold temperatures, the
temperature of the camera’s body may be lower than the
environmental temperature. If possible, wear gloves when
handling the camera in cold temperatures.
• Insert the battery carefully as described in the operating
instructions.
• If rechargeable batteries have not been recharged within the
specified time, stop charging them and do not use them.
• Do not use a battery if it is cracked or broken.
• If a battery leaks, becomes discolored or deformed, or
becomes abnormal in any other way during operation, stop
using the camera.
• If a battery leaks fluid onto your clothing or skin, remove the
clothing and flush the affected area with clean, running cold
water immediately. If the fluid burns your skin, seek medical
attention immediately.
• Be careful with the strap.
• Be careful with the strap when you carry the camera. It could
easily catch on stray objects and cause serious damage.
• Never subject batteries to strong shocks or continuous
vibration.
Battery Handling Precautions
CAUTION
Follow these important guidelines to prevent batteries
from leaking, overheating, burning, exploding, or causing
electrical shocks or burns.
• Before loading, always inspect the battery carefully for leaks,
discoloration, warping, or any other abnormality.
• The battery may become hot during prolonged use. To avoid
minor burns, do not remove it immediately after using the
camera.
DANGER
• Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the
camera for a long period.
• The camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by Olympus.
Charge the battery with the specified USB-AC adapter. Do not
use any other USB-AC adapters.
Caution for Usage Environment
• Never heat or incinerate batteries.
• Take precautions when carrying or storing batteries to prevent
them from coming into contact with any metal objects such as
jewelry, pins, fasteners, etc.
• Never store batteries where they will be exposed to direct
sunlight, or subjected to high temperatures in a hot vehicle,
near a heat source, etc.
• To prevent causing battery leaks or damaging their terminals,
carefully follow all instructions regarding the use of batteries.
Never attempt to disassemble a battery or modify it in any
way, solder, etc.
• If battery fluid gets into your eyes, flush your eyes immediately
with clear, cold running water and seek medical attention
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
humidifiers.
• In sandy or dusty environments.
• Near flammable items or explosives.
• 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.
EN 83
• 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.
• Static images displayed on organic EL monitors for extended
periods of time may “burn in”, causing a drop in brightness
or discoloration in some areas of the display, which may be
permanent in some cases. This phenomenon has no effect on
images recorded with the camera.
• Do not touch electric contacts on cameras.
• Do not leave the camera pointed directly at the sun. This may
cause lens or shutter curtain damage, color failure, ghosting on
the CCD, or may possibly cause fires.
• A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but
this is not a malfunction.
• 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.
• Although the monitor is manufactured using high-precision
technology, some pixels may always be lit or may never light,
and color and brightness may vary with the viewing angle.
This is normal for this type of monitor and does not indicate a
malfunction; images recorded with the camera are unaffected.
• Do not push or pull severely on the lens.
• Before storing the camera for a long period, remove the
batteries. 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 button to make sure that it is operating normally.
• The camera may malfunction if it is used in a location where
it is subject to a magnetic/electromagnetic field, 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.
