EFFECTS OF ZOOM AND ITS ADVANTAGES

Zoom lens focal length is changed by moving
part of the lens. With this camera, you can
select any focal length between 28 mm and

110 mm.

• 28 mm wide-angle
Because the angle of view is wide and the

depth of field is large, you can take sharp

photographs with enhanced perspective and
contrast. This is ideal fo r shooting landscapes,
skylines, crowds at a party, etc.

• 50 mm (approx.)

This range is the standard angle of view and

has moderate background blurring. It is

suitable for most types of shot including

portraits.

• 110 mm
At its maximum focal length, the built-in lens
offers a telephoto effect. The depth of field is
shallower, and the effects of aperture settings
are more apparent. In telephoto shooting, use
a tripod or hold the camera firmly to prevent
the camera from shaking.

• 160 mm telephoto (optional)

When the optional teleconverter IS/L LENS C-

160 H.Q. CONVERTER 1.45X is used, you

can extend the telephoto range up to 160 mm.

• 210 mm telephoto (optional)

When the optional teleconverter IS/L LENS C -

210 H.Q. CONVERTER 1.9X is used, you can

extend the telephoto range up to 210 mm.

Angle of view and depth of field
Angle of view is directly related to the focal
depth of field (the distance in fron t of and
behind the subject that the camera is able to
bring into focus). The greater the angle of view
(wide angle), the greater the depth of field.
When t he angle of view is narrow (telephoto),
the depth of field decreases.

AUTOFOCUS (AF)

Although this camera's autofocus can lock on virtually any subject, there

are certain conditions, such as shown below, where it may not be
possible to obtain the correct focus. In the situations shown in on

the next page, autofocus may not lock on the correct subject even

though the autofocus indicator lights and the shutter releases.

Subjects with low contrast

Subjects that do not contain

vertical lines

Subjects in excessively bright
light

• Use the focus lock by fi r st

focusing on something at the

same distance as the subject

you wis h to take a picture of,

and then aim at the subject.

• Use the f o c u s lock first while
holding the camera vertically.

Then switch the camera to the

horizontal position to take the
photograph.

• Use the focus lock by first

focusing on something at the

same distance as the subject

you wish to take a picture of,

and then aim at the subject.

54

• Focu s on another subject at the
desired camera-to-subject
distance first. Then recompose

the frame to take the picture.

•When the subject locks out-of-

focus although the autofocus
indicator lights, focus on
another subject at the desired
camera-to-subject distance first.
Then recompose the frame to
take the picture.

•When the subject locks out-of-

focus although the autofocus
indicator lights, focus on

another subject at the desired
camera-to-subject distance first.

Then recompose the frame to

Programmed Chart (FULL AUTO)

The following program chart is for 28 mm wide­angle and 110 mm telephoto focal lengths.

According to the focal length, the camera's

program itself changes. When the subject is

Automatic Exposure Mode

Exposure refers to the amount of light which
strikes the film, and is controlled by a combination
of aperture size and shutter speed. The correct
amount of light, called correct exposure, depends

on the film speed (indicated on the fi lm package,

e.g., ISO 100 or ISO 200).

The automatic exposure function automatically

sets the correct exposure. This camera employs

two types of automatic exposure modes,
programmed auto-exposure and aperture-

preferred auto exposure.

With programmed auto exposure, the camera

automatically selects the most suitable
combination of F stop and shutter speed for the

existing lighting conditions. This lets you
concentrate on composing your shot and
releasing the shutter at just the right time.
With aperture-preferred auto, you select the
desired F stop, and the camera automatically
selects the correct shutter speed. Aperture­preferred auto gives more artistic freedom of

expression and creativity by selecting a desired F

stop to control the blur of the background.

EXPOSURE

brightly lit, the F stop and shutter speed change

simultaneously. When the lighting is darker, the

aperture remains wide-open and only the shutter
speed changes to as slow as 2 sec. to match the

available light (ISO 100).

In the standard shooting mode (refer to p. 43), if

the built-in flash has been flipped up, it will

automatically fir e in dark lighting or backlit
conditions. The shutter speed will be fixed at

1/100-sec.

Flash OFF
Flash FILL-IN

56

Portrait Mode

In this mode, the camera chooses a wide aperture

for a shallow depth of field. This results in a softly

blurred subject background, against which your

subject stands out in sharp focu s. This mode also

prevents camera-shake from happening because

a faster shutter speed is selected.

Night Scene Mode

Allows you to capture beautiful nighttime scenes

just as they are. The camera automatically adjusts

exposure compensation f or optimum night scene

photography - extending exposure time for up to 4

seconds (ISO 100). W hen shooting a subject
against a nighttime background, use of the flash is
recommended. In this case, the camera optimizes
exposure compensation for both the subject and

the background. Since the selected shutter speed

may be very slow, hold the camera firmly in
position (with a tripod for example) to prevent

blurring.

Stop Action Mode

This mode is ideal for capturing high-speed photo

opportunities such as sports scenes and children
at play. A fas t shutter speed is automatically
selected to "freeze" the action on film.

Exposure Compensation

When you shoot ordinary subjects, the camera
automatically selects the most appropriate
exposure to give you the best shot. However,
when shooting a backlit or whitish subject
(including a snowscape) we recommend you

correct exposure to +1 ~ +2 (to make your picture

brighter). For a spotlighted, darkish, or blackish

subject, correct exposure to -1 ~ -2 for (to make

your picture darker).

Long Time Mode

To obtain trailing effects when shooting fireworks

or car lights, a long shutter speed is required. The

Long Time mode is ideal for this type of shot since
it allows you to choose a shutter speed of up to 60
seconds with a fixed aperture of F8. Since the

selected shutter speed will be very slow, use of a

tripod is recommended to prevent blurring.

Landscape Mode

This mode is ideal when you want to focus on both

the subject and the background or when you want

to shoot natural scenery with low contrast. The
camera automatically stops down the aperture to
make the range of focus as large as possible. In

shooting conditions for this mode, the subjects are

likely to be at a distance of (infinity), so the
autofocus function in this mode starts from the
position.

57

Film Speed

Film speed is indicated on the back of film
packages. ISO 100, ISO 200, and ISO 400 are the
most common. High-speed f i l m (ISO 400), as

implied by its name, is for taking photos of fast­moving subjects in action shots, for example.
However, there are also other advantages. With

high-speed film, such as ISO 400, it is possible to

take pictures in lower light. An d the distance
covered by the flash will be greater. Generally, the
higher the film speed, the grainier the picture.
With this camera, we recommend the use of "DX"

film cartridges: ISO 25 ~ 3200. In the c a s e of non-

DX-coded film, the camera will automatically be

set to film speed ISO 32.

FILM SPEED

METERING THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT

Light Metering

Light metering can measure the brightness of the

framed subject in various ways. This camera

employs three metering systems: ( 1 ) ESP light
metering, (2) center-weighted average light
metering, and (3) spot metering. You can select

the light metering system most suitable to the

conditions. The camera also uses TTL (through-

the-lens) light metering to automatically measure

the light that enters the lens. This lets you get very

accurate light readings that are unaffected by
changes in the distance between the subject and

the camera.

Fuzzy Logic ESP (Electro-Selective Pattern)

Light Metering

ESP light metering measures the brightness of the
central portion and peripheral portion of the frame

separately in order to determine the proper

exposure. The calculation program used is based
on programmed data to properly compensate for
backlighting. ESP light metering is used
automatically when in the Full-Auto mode.

Center-Weighted Average Light Metering

Center-weighted average light metering is the

most widely used light metering system (Fig. A).

This system measures the light available
throughout the frame with special emphasis on the

center of the frame. When in the Aperture-

58

Preferred Auto mode, this light metering system is

automatically activated. When the contrast
between bright and dark areas is not too extreme
outside the center of the frame, this system offer s

excellent results.

Spot Metering

Spot metering (Fig. B) measures the brightness at

the center of the frame only. Because this

metering system calculates the correct exposure

fo r only one point, it is convenient when the

subject is backlit or the picture contains strong
contrasts. When shooting a subject in front of an

extremely bright background, you should use spot

metering on the subject's face.

Super FP Flash

The duration of a conventional flash is extremely
short. With SLR cameras equipped with focal
plane shutters, the flash can normally only be
synchronized at shutter speeds where the shutter
opens fully. In this camera's Portrait mode, the

flash duration has been extended, so

synchronization is possible even when the shutter
is not fully open. This system is called Super FP
Flash and is especially effective for daylight sync
photography with backlit scenes. Subjects can be
made to stand out by opening the lens aperture

fully to blur the background. Since flash output is

never overpowering, it is easy to take natural­looking daylight sync pictures can with lighting
similar to that used by professionals for SLR
photography.

MAINTENANCE

QUESTIONS A ND ANSWERS

Q: H ow long will the batteries last?

A: Two new 3V lithium batteries will last f o r

roughly 20 rolls of 24-exposure film on
which the flash was used on half of all
the shots (determined under Olympus

test conditions). If you do not use the

flash and zoom very often, the batteries
will last much longer.

Q: How should I store the camera?

A: Cameras are susceptible to damage

caused by dust, moisture, and salt.
Wipe and dry the camera thoroughly

before storing it. Af ter using it at the

beach, wipe it wi th a cloth that has

been moistened with fresh water and
then wrung out. Do not use mothballs.

Q: W h e n does th e camera measure and

set the exposure?

A: When the shutter release button is

pressed halfway, the camera measures

both the exposure and the focus and

then locks them as long as the shutter

release button remains halfway
depressed. In the Spot Metering mode,

the exposure is locked when the spot

button is pressed.

Q: How should I clean the lens?

A: Wi pe the lens gently with lens cleaning

tissue that has been moistened with a
small amount of lens cleaning fluid.

Q: Can I use a filter?

A: Yes, you can. Use one with a diameter

of 52 mm. When you use a thick one,

like a C-POL (circular-polarizing) filter,
the edges of the picture plane
sometimes become dark or the lens
cap may not close. Be sure to turn off
the power before mounting or removing

a filter. When doing so, even with the

power off , sometimes the lens rotates
and the motor operates. This is not a
malfunction.

Q: Can I use infrared film?

A: No.

61

CARE AND STORAGE

Do not leave the camera in

any place exposed to

excessive heat, humidity, or

direct sunlight - for example,

in a car or on the beach.

Do not expose the camera

to formalin or naphthalene.

If the camera gets wet, wipe

it with a dry towel
immediately. The salt in

seawater can be especially
damaging.

Do not use organic solvents

such as alcohol or paint
thinner when cleaning the

camera.

Do not leave the camera on

a television, refrigerator, or

speaker.

Do not expose the camera

to dust or sand as this could

cause serious damage.

Do not shake or shock the

camera.

Do not apply excessive force

to the zoom lens.

62

• Keep the camera in a well-ventilated place.

• Do not expose the camera to extreme heat
(over 40°C/104°F) or to extreme cold (below

-10°C/14°F). Low temperatures, even within

this range, may sometimes cause
deterioration in battery performance,
temporarily disabling the camera.

• When transporting the camera from a cold

place to a wa rm place or in the event of a

sudden temperature change, put the camera
into a plastic bag. This allows the camera's
temperature to change slowly. Once the
camera has adjusted to the new temperature,

you can remove it from the bag and use it.

• Keep your hair, hands, strap, etc., away from

the autofocus window, lens, A E sensor and
flash.

• Avoid leaving the camera unused for a long
period of time. This can cause mold to grow

on the camera as well as other problems. Try

to press the shutter release button and check

the operation of the camera before use.

• B e careful when moving the camera on a
tripod.

• Do not allow your film to pass through airport
X-ray machines.

• Do no t touch the contact points inside th e

camera.

• This camera is controlled by a

microcomputer. Problems with the
microcomputer can affect or stop camera

operation. If this happens, remove th e
batteries, then reload them and try the
camera again. Strong electrical fields can
also interfere with the operation of this
camera, so try to avoid places or objects that
generate such fields.

• This camera is not suitable for use under
severe conditions.

• Do not touch the front surface of the flash

after using th e flash continuously in a short

time as the flash may be hot.

63

• Do not short, disassemble or charge the
batteries. Never throw batteries into fir e
because this can result in splitting or
explosion.

• S tore batteries out of the reach of children. If
a battery is swallowed, consult a doctor
immediately.

• Continuous use of the flash can cause battery

temperature to rise. This may activate the
safety circuit inside th e batteries and cause
the camera to stop working. In such case,

allow the batteries to cool before using t he

camera again.

• Use the batteries correctly. Incorrect usage
can result in leaking, heat and damage.
When replacing the batteries, make sure the
plus and minus terminals are correctly
aligned.

• Whe n replacing, never mix old and new
batteries, or batteries of different types. Make
sure both terminals are of the same type and

same brand (DL123A or CR123A).

• Battery performance will drop temporarily at
lower temperatures. In cold areas, protect the
camera by using pro tective gear or placing it
inside your clothing. Even whe n performance
drops due to low temperature, it will be

restored at normal temperatures.

• Sweat or oil on the plus and minus
terminals can cause poor contact. Wipe

batteries carefully with a dry cloth before use.

• We recommend that you carry spare batteries

on long trips, especially in foreign countries
where availability is questionable.

• Insulate used batteries by affixing tape over

electrical contacts, and dispose of them as
general waste according to local regulations.

• If you are not going to use the camera for an

extended period of time, remove the batteries

from the camera and store them in a cool, dry

(low humidity) place at 20°C (68°F) or less.

• Observe the precautionary remarks written on
the batteries.

The subject was within

the frame of the

viewfinder, but its edges
are missing on the print.

The picture is out
of focus.

The picture is too

dark.

The colors of pictures taken
indoors look unnatural.

Cause

This "red-eye phenomenon" occurs with
all cameras when a flash is used. It is
caused by light from the flash reflecting off
the retina at the back of the eye. Red-eye
varies depending on the individual and
shooting conditions such as ambient
lighting. It is also more likely to occur
wh en using 110 mm telephoto than when
using wide-angle focal lengths.

When a negative is enlarged, sometimes
the edge of the frame is not printed.
