• 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
• Set [AF Mode] to [Face/iESP]. g P. 44• Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode. g P. 35
The camera tracks the subject movement automatically to focus on it
continuously.
• Taking a picture of a shadowy subject. g P. 47
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 Subject containing nocenter of frame

Subjects at different
area
distances*1 It is also effective to compose the shot by holding the camera vertically tofocus, and then returning to the horizontal position to take the picture.

EN 91

 Camera shake
Taking pictures without camera shake.
• Taking pictures using [Image Stabilizer]. g P. 46
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 [IS Movie Mode]. g P. 50• Select [J Sport] in the scene mode. g P. 24
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. 39
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.
[Shadow Adjust] g P. 44[E Backlight HDR] g P. 25• Taking pictures using [Face/iESP]. g P. 44

Precautions when using the wireless LAN function
If using the wireless LAN function in a country outside the region where the camera was purchased, there is a riskthat the camera will not conform to the wireless communication regulations of that country. Olympus will not beheld responsible for any failure to meet such regulations.

GPS function, electronic compass• In a location not open to the sky (inside, underground, underwater, in a forest, near high buildings) or in alocation subject to strong magnetic or electric fields (near new high-voltage power lines, magnets or electrical
goods, 1.5GHz mobile telephones), it may not be possible to determine measurements or generate errors.
• The altitude displayed on the measurement information screen or picture playback screen etc. is displayed/recorded based on information from pressure sensors built into camera body. Be careful since the displayed
altitude is not based on GPS position measurements.
• Electronic compass errors may be caused by the effects of strong magnetic or electrical fields (such as
televisions, microwaves, large motors, radio towers and high-voltage lines). To restore the electronic compass
function, hold the camera firmly and move in a figure of 8 while turning your wrist over.
• Since the GPS function and electronic compass function are not required to be accurate, there is no guaranteethat the measured values (latitude, longitude, compass direction etc.) are accurate.

110 EN

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 nota 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 ordead pixel on the monitor. These pixels do not have any influence on the image to be saved. Because of thecharacteristics, the unevenness of the color or brightness may also be found depending on the angle, but this isdue to the structure of the monitor. This is not a malfunction.
