Value
ISO stands for International Organization for
Standardization. ISO standards specify the sensitivity
for digital cameras and fi lm, thus codes such as “ISO
100” are used to represent sensitivity.
In the ISO setting, although smaller values result in
less sensitivity, sharp images can be taken under fully
lit conditions. Larger values result in higher sensitivity,
and images can be taken at fast shutter speeds even
under low light conditions. However, high sensitivity
introduces noise into the resulting picture, which may
give it a grainy appearance.
The camera automatically adjusts
the sensitivity according to the
shooting scene.
The camera uses a higher sensitivity
compared to [ISO Auto] to minimize
blur caused by a moving subject or
by camera shake.
The ISO sensitivity is fi xed to the
selected value.

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
humidifi ers.
In sandy or dusty environments.
•
Near fl ammable items or explosives.
•

•
Before transporting the camera, remove a tripod and all other
non-OLYMPUS accessories.
•
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 image pickup device, or may possibly cause fi res.
•
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 fi 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.
•
Always observe the operating environment restrictions
described in the camera’s manual.
Battery Handling Precautions
This camera uses a lithium ion battery specifi ed by Olympus.
•

If the battery’s terminals get wet or greasy, camera contact
•
failure may result. Wipe the battery well with a dry cloth
before use.
72
EN
Always charge a battery when using it for the fi rst time, or if it
•
has not been used for a long period.
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.

•
abroad, purchase extra batteries. A recommended battery may
be diffi cult to obtain while traveling.
When storing the battery for a long period, select a cool
•
location for storage.
•
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.
LCD Monitor
Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may
•
become vague, resulting in a playback mode failure or damage
to the monitor.
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.
In places subject to low temperatures, the LCD 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 LCD monitor
exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will
recover in normal temperatures.
The LCD used for the monitor is made with high-precision
•
technology. However, black spots or bright spots of light
may appear constantly on the LCD 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.
