Using GPS function

Whether being used to take photographs or not, the camera can acquire and log GPS and other sensor data, including position and altitude. These data can also be embedded in photographs. Logs can be downloaded for use with the OLYMPUS Image Track (OI.Track) smartphone app.

• Latitude and longitude are displayed on images to which position information has been added.

• The camera is not equipped for GPS navigation.

• Be sure to use the latest version of the app.

For details, visit the address below: http://app.olympus-imaging.com/oitrack/

Before you begin

• Before using the GPS function, read “GPS function, electronic compass” (P. 123).

• In certain countries and regions it may be illegal to acquire position information without prior application to the government. Because of this, in certain sales regions, the camera may be set up not to display position information. When taking the camera abroad, be aware that some regions or countries may have laws regulating the use of this function. Be sure to abide by all local laws.

• Before boarding an aircraft or entering other locations where the use of GPS devices is prohibited, be sure to rotate the LOG switch to OFF and select [Off] for both [Record GPS location] (P. 68) and [Auto Time Adjust] (P. 70).

• This camera also supports Quasi-Zenith Satellites System and GLONASS.

Before using GPS function (A-GPS data)

Depending on the status of the camera and communication, it may take time to acquire the position information. When the A-GPS is used, the position determination time can be shortened from a few seconds to a few tens of seconds. The A-GPS data can be updated using the smartphone app “OLYMPUS Image Track” (OI.Track) or the PC software “OLYMPUS A-GPS Utility”.

• Make sure that the camera date is set correctly.

• Set the camera to private connection (P. 76).

• A-GPS data must be updated every 4 weeks. The position information may have changed when time has elapsed after updating the data. Use as new A-GPS data as possible.

• The provision of A-GPS data may be terminated without prior notice.

Updating the A-GPS data using a smartphone

Before update, install the smartphone app “OLYMPUS Image Track” (OI. Track) on your smartphone. Refer to the URL below for details on how to update the A-GPS data. http://app.olympus-imaging.com/oitrack/

Connect the camera and the smartphone, following the procedure described in “Connecting to a smartphone” (P. 73).

• If a connection error is displayed, you will need to re-establish the connection

between the camera and smartphone. g “Error message during Wi-Fi connection” (P. 73)

Updating the A-GPS data using a PC

Download the OLYMPUS A-GPS Utility software from the URL below, and install it on your PC. http://sdl.olympus-imaging.com/agps/ Refer to “OLYMPUS A-GPS Utility Instruction Manual” on the website with above URL for details on how to update the data.

Using GPS

Any of the following enable GPS: rotating the LOG switch to LOG (P. 44), selecting [On] for [Record GPS location] (P. 68), or selecting [On] for [Auto Time Adjust] (P. 70).

• Do not cover the GPS antenna with your hands or metal objects.

• If you are using the GPS function for the first time and the A-GPS has not been updated, or if the function has not been used for a long time, it may take a few minutes for the position measurement to end.

• Enabling GPS increases the drain on the battery. To reduce the drain on the battery when GPS is enabled, select [Battery power] for [GPS Priority] (P. 68).

Displaying tracked movement of GPS logs

After the GPS track logs are recorded, the tracked movement of the logs can be displayed using the OLYMPUS Viewer 3 or OI.Track.

• The tracked movement cannot be displayed on the camera.

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 g P. 9

• Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode. g P. 33 The camera tracks the subject movement automatically to focus on it continuously.

• Taking a picture of a shadowy subject. g P. 53 Using the AF illuminator makes focusing easier.

• Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus is difficult. 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.

Subject with low contrast Excessively bright light in

Subjects at different distances

Fast-moving subject Subject not inside AF

Subject containing no vertical lines *

area

 Camera shake

Taking pictures without camera shake.

• Taking pictures using “Image stabilizer (still images)”. g P. 40 The camera detects camera movement to reduce the blur even if the ISO sensitivity is not increased. This function is also effective when taking pictures at a high zoom magnification.

• Shooting movies using “Image stabilizer (movies)”. g P. 40

• Select [Motion] > [J Sport] in  mode. g P. 23 The [J Sport] mode uses a fast shutter speed and can reduce the blur incurred by a moving subject.

• Taking pictures at a high ISO sensitivity. g P. 36 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.

 Exposure (brightness)

Taking pictures with the right brightness.

• Taking pictures of a subject against a backlight Faces or backgrounds are bright even when shot against backlight. [E Backlight HDR] g P. 23

• Taking pictures using [Spot]. g P. 42

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] flash. g P. 28

A subject against backlight is brightened.

• Taking pictures of a white beach or snow scene. g P. 23

Select [Scenery] > [g Beach & Snow] in  mode.

• Taking pictures using exposure compensation. g P. 29

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. g P. 36

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 artificial light settings, and so on.)

 Image quality

Taking sharper pictures.

• Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity. g P. 36

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.

Playback/Editing tips

 Playback

Viewing images with high picture quality on a highdefinition TV.

• Connect the camera to the TV using an HDMI cable. g P. 80

 Editing

Erasing the sound recorded to a still image.

• Display the image with the audio you wish to delete and select [R] >

[Erase]. g P. 58
