“Vertical lines appear on the monitor”.

● This condition may occur when the camera is pointed at an extremely bright subject under a clear sky and so on. The lines may appear on the recorded picture or movie with sequential shots.

“The light is caught in the picture”.

● Shooting with ﬂ ash in dark situations results in an image with many ﬂ ash reﬂ ections on dust in the air.

Date and time function

Miscellaneous

Date and time function

“Date and time settings return to the default setting”.

● If the batteries are removed and left out of the camera for about 1 days settings return to the default setting, and must be reset.

Shooting tips

When you are unsure of how to take a picture that you envision, refer to the information below.

Focusing

“Focusing on the subject”

● Taking a picture of a subject not in the center of the monitor

After focusing on an object at the same distance as the subject, compose the shot, and take the picture.

Pressing the shutter button halfway (p. 9)

● Set [AF Mode] (p. 28) to [Face/iESP]

● Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode (p. 29)

The camera tracks the subject movement automatically to focus on it continuously.

● Taking a picture of a shadowy subject

Using the AF illuminator makes focusing easier. [AF Illuminat.] (p. 30)

● Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus is difﬁ cult

In the following cases, after focusing on an object (by pressing the shutter button halfway down) with high contrast at the same distance as the subject, compose the shot, and take the picture.

Subjects with low contrast

When extremely bright objects

appear in the center of the

Object with no vertical lines

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.

When objects are at different

distances

Camera shake

“Taking pictures without camera shake”

● Taking pictures using [Image Stabilizer] (p. 29)

The image pickup device camera shake even if the ISO sensitivity is not increased. This function is also effective when taking pictures at a high zoom magniﬁ cation.

A device that takes light received through the lens and converts it into electric signals.

● Shooting movies using [IS Movie Mode] (p. 32)

● Select [C Sport] in the scene mode (p. 13)

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 ﬂ ash cannot be used.

“ISO sensitivity” (p. 24)

shifts to correct for

Exposure (brightness)

“Taking pictures with the right brightness”

● Taking pictures using [Face/iESP] (p. 28)

Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face against backlight, and the face is brightened.

● Taking pictures using [n] for [ESP/n]

(p. 29)

Brightness is matched with a subject in the center of the screen and the image is not affected by background light.

● Taking pictures using [Fill In] (p. 23) ﬂ ash

A subject against backlight is brightened.

● Taking pictures of a white beach or snow scene

Select [q Beach & Snow] in the scene mode (p. 13).

● Taking pictures using exposure compensation (p. 23)

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.

Color hue

“Taking pictures with colors at the same shade as they appear”

● Taking pictures by selecting white balance (p. 24)

Best results in most environments can normally be obtained with the [WB Auto] setting, but for some subjects, you should try experimenting with different settings. (This is especially true for sunshade under a clear sky, mixed natural and artiﬁ cial light settings, and so on.)

Image quality

“Taking sharper pictures”

● Taking pictures with the optical zoom or super-resolution zoom

Avoid using digital zoom (p. 29) 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.

“ISO sensitivity” (p. 24)

Batteries

“Making batteries last longer”

● Set [Power Save] (p. 41) to [On]

Playback/Editing tips

Playback

“Playing images in the internal memory and card”

● Remove the card and display the images in internal memory

Use Only Dedicated Rechargeable Battery, Battery Charger and USB-AC adapter

We strongly recommend that you use only the genuine Olympus dedicated rechargeable battery, battery charger and USB-AC adapter with this camera. Using a non-genuine rechargeable battery, battery charger and/or USB-AC adapter may result in ﬁ re or personal injury due to leakage, heating, ignition or damage to the battery. Olympus does not assume any liability for accidents or damage that may result from the use of a battery, battery charger and/or USB-AC adapter that are not genuine Olympus accessories.

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 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. The monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will recover in normal temperatures.

• The monitor of this product is manufactured with high-quality accuracy, however, there may be a stuck or dead pixel on the monitor. These pixels do not have any inﬂ uence on the image to be saved. Because of the characteristics, the unevenness of the color or brightness may also be found depending on the angle, but this is due to the structure of the monitor. This is not a malfunction.
