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. 10)
● Set [AF Mode] (p. 34) to [Face/iESP]
● Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode (p. 34)
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. 35)
● 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
When objects are at different
Fast-moving object
The subject is not in the
center of the frame

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.

A device that takes light received through the
lens and converts it into electric signals.
● Shooting movies using [IS Movie Mode]
(p. 38)
● Select [C Sport] in the scene mode (p. 14)
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.

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.
[Shadow Adjust] (p. 33)
[h Backlight HDR] (p. 14)
● Taking pictures using [Face/iESP] (p. 34)
Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face
against backlight, and the face is brightened.
● Taking pictures using [n] for [ESP/n]
(p. 34)
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. 28) 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. 14).
● Taking pictures using exposure
compensation (p. 28)
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. 28)
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. 35) 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.

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.
