Types of art lters
Pop Art I/II Creates an image that emphasizes the beauty of color.
Soft Focus Creates an image that expresses a soft tone atmosphere.
Pale&Light Color I/II
Creates an image that expresses warm light by scattering overall
light and slightly overexposing the image.
Light Tone
Creates a high-quality image by softening both shadows and
highlights.
Grainy Film I/II
Creates an image that expresses the roughness of black and
white images.
Pin Hole I/II/III
Creates an image that looks as if it was taken using an old or toy
camera by dimming the image perimeter.
Diorama I/II
Creates a miniature-like image by emphasizing saturation and
contrast, and blurring unfocused areas.
Cross Process I/II
Creates an image that expresses a surreal atmosphere. Cross
Process II creates an image that emphasizes magenta.
Gentle Sepia
Creates a high-quality image by drawing out shadows and
softening the overall image.
Dramatic Tone I/II
Creates an image that emphasizes the difference between
brightness and darkness by partially increasing contrast.
Key Line I/II
Creates an image that emphasizes edges and adds an illustrative
style.
Watercolor I/II
Creates a soft, bright image by removing dark areas, blending
pale colors on a white canvas, and further softening contours.
Vintage I/II/III
Expresses an everyday shot in a nostalgic, vintage tone using
printed lm discoloration and fading.
Partial Color I/II/III
Impressively expresses a subject by extracting colors you want to
emphasize and keeping everything else monotone.
Bleach Bypass I/II
The “bleach bypass” effect, which you may recognize from motion
pictures and the like, can be used to great effect in shots of
streetscapes or metal objects.
Instant Film
A contemporary take on the skin tones and shadow gradations
typical of lm.
II and III are altered versions of the original (I).
To maximize the benets of the art lters, some of the shooting function settings are
disabled.
If [RAW] is currently selected for image quality (P. 86), image quality will automatically
be set to RAW+JPEG. The art lter will be applied to the JPEG copy only.
Depending on the subject, tone transitions may be ragged, the effect may be less
noticeable, or the image may become more “grainy.”
Some effects may not be visible during movie recording.

Reduct.] (P. 134) is enabled.
Noise in images
While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on screen. These phenomena
occur when the temperature rises in the image pickup device or image pickup device
internal drive circuit, causing current to be generated in those sections of the image pickup
device that are not normally exposed to light. This can also occur when shooting with a
high ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce this noise, the camera
activates the noise reduction function. g [Noise Reduct.] (P. 134)

Press the R button again to end recording.
The sound of touch operations and button operations may be recorded.
CMOS image sensors of the type used in the camera generate a so-called “rolling shutter”
effect that can cause distortion in pictures of moving objects. This distortion is a physical
phenomenon that occurs in pictures of fast-moving subjects or if the camera is moved
during shooting. It is particularly noticeable in pictures taken at long focal lengths.
If the size of the movie le being recorded exceeds 4 GB, the le will be split
automatically. (Depending on shooting conditions, movies under 4 GB in size may be split
into multiple les.)
If the camera is used for extended periods, the temperature of the image pickup device
will rise and noise and colored fog may appear in images. Turn off the camera for a short
time. Noise and colored fog may also appear in images recorded at high ISO sensitivity
settings. If the temperature rises further, the camera will turn off automatically.
The R button cannot be used to record movies in the following instances:
While shutter the button is pressed halfway; during bulb, time, composite, sequential or
time lapse photography; or when e-portrait, handheld starlight, panorama, or backlight
HDR is selected in SCN mode or keystone compensation, panorama, live time, multiple
exposure, or HDR is selected in Z mode
When recording movies, use an SD card that supports an SD speed class of 10 or higher.

enabled.
When using a drained battery, the camera may turn off without the low battery warning
being displayed.
Remove the batteries before putting the camera into storage for periods of a month or
more.
Leaving the batteries in the camera for extended periods shortens their lives, potentially
rendering them unusable.
The battery will not be fully charged at the time of purchase. Charge the battery using the
supplied USB-AC adapter before use.
The normal charging time using the provided USB-AC adapter is approximately 4 hours
(estimated).
Do not use USB-AC adapters or chargers not specically designated for use with batteries
of the supplied type. Similarly, do not use the supplied USB-AC adapter with batteries
(cameras) other than those of the designated type.
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with the incorrect battery type.
Dispose of the used battery following the instructions “CAUTION” (P. 178) in the
instruction manual.
Using your USB-AC adapter abroad
The USB-AC adapter can be used in most home electrical sources within the range of
100 V to 240 V AC (50/60 Hz) around the world. However, depending on the country or
area you are in, the AC wall outlet may be shaped differently and the USB-AC adapter
may require a plug adapter to match the wall outlet.
Do not use commercially available travel adapters as the USB-AC adapter may
malfunction.

Interchangeable lenses
Choose a lens according to the scene and your creative intent. Use
lenses designed exclusively for the Micro Four Thirds system and
bearing the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL label or the symbol shown at right.
With an adapter, you can also use Four Thirds System and OM System
lenses. The optional adapter is required.
When you attach or remove the body cap and lens from the camera, keep the lens mount
on the camera pointed downward. This helps prevent dust and other foreign matter from
getting inside the camera.
Do not remove the body cap or attach the lens in dusty places.
Do not point the lens attached to the camera toward the sun. This may cause the camera
to malfunction or even ignite due to the magnifying effect of sunlight focusing through the
lens.
Be careful not to lose the body cap and rear cap.
Attach the body cap to the camera to prevent dust from getting inside when no lens is
attached.

Wireless remote control ash photography
External ash units that are designated for use with this camera and have a remote
control mode can be used for wireless ash photography. The camera can separately
control each of three groups of remote ash units, and the internal ash. See the
instruction manuals provided with the external ash units for details.
1
Set the remote ash units to RC mode and place them as desired.
Turn the external ash units on, press the MODE button, and select RC mode.
Select a channel and group for each external ash unit.
2
Select [On] for [# RC Mode] in X Shooting Menu 2 (P. 118).
Press the Q button to exit to the RC mode display. Press the INFO button to cycle
between LV super controls or live controls and the RC mode display.
Select a ash mode (note that red-eye reduction is not available in RC mode).

Rotate the ON/OFF lever to #UP to raise the ash.
After conrming that the ash has charged, take a test shot.
Wireless ash control range
Position the wireless ash units with their remote sensors facing the camera. The following
illustration shows the approximate ranges at which the ash units can be positioned. The
actual control range varies with local conditions.
We recommend using a single group of up to
three remote ash units.
Remote ash units cannot be used for second
curtain slow synchronization exposures longer
than 4 seconds.
If the subject is too close to the camera,
the control ashes emitted by the camera
ash may affect exposure (this effect can be
reduced by reducing the output of the camera
ash by, for example, using a diffuser).

Other external ash units
Note the following when using a third-party ash unit mounted on the camera hot shoe:
Using obsolete ash units that apply currents of more than about 24 V to the X-contact will
damage the camera.
Connecting ash units with signal contacts that do not conform to Olympus specications
may damage the camera.
Set the Shooting mode to M, set the shutter speed to a value no higher than ash
synchronous speed, and set ISO sensitivity to a setting other than [AUTO].
Flash control can only be performed by manually setting the ash to the ISO sensitivity
and aperture values selected with the camera. Flash brightness can be adjusted by
adjusting either ISO sensitivity or aperture.
Use a ash with an angle of illumination suited to the lens. Angle of illumination is usually
expressed using 35-mm format equivalent focal lengths.

Cleaning and storing the camera
Cleaning the camera
Turn off the camera and remove the battery before cleaning the camera.
Do not use strong solvents such as benzene or alcohol, or a chemically treated cloth.
Exterior:
Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is very dirty, soak the cloth in mild soapy water
and wring well. Wipe the camera with the damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth. If you
have used the camera at the beach, use a cloth soaked in clean water and well wrung.
Monitor:
Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
Lens:
Blow dust off the lens with a commercially available blower. For the lens, wipe gently with
a lens cleaning paper.
Storage
When not using the camera for a prolonged period, remove the battery and card. Store
the camera in a cool, dry place that is well ventilated.
Insert the battery periodically and test the camera’s functions.
Remove dust and other foreign matter from the body and rear caps before attaching them.
Attach the body cap to the camera to prevent dust from getting inside when no lens is
attached. Be sure to replace the front and rear lens caps before putting the lens away.
Clean the camera after use.
Do not store with insect repellent.
Avoid storing the camera in places where chemicals are treated, in order to protect the
camera from corrosion.
Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty.
Check each part of the camera before use if it has not been used for a long time. Before
taking important pictures, be sure to take a test shot and check that the camera works
properly.
Cleaning and checking the image pickup device
This camera incorporates a dust reduction function to keep dust from getting on the
image pickup device and to remove any dust or dirt from the image pickup device
surface with ultrasonic vibrations. The dust reduction function operates when the
camera is turned on.
The dust reduction function operates at the same time as the pixel mapping, which
checks the image pickup device and image processing circuitry. Since dust reduction
is activated every time the camera’s power is turned on, the camera should be held
upright for the dust reduction function to be effective.

No picture is taken when the shutter button is pressed
The camera has turned off automatically
The camera automatically enters sleep mode to reduce the drain on the battery if no
operations are performed for a set period of time. g [Sleep] (P. 137)
Press the shutter button halfway to exit the sleep mode.
The camera will turn off automatically if no operations are performed for an additional
4 hours.
The ash is charging
On the monitor, the # mark blinks when charging is in progress. Wait for the blinking to
stop, then press the shutter button.
Unable to focus
The camera cannot focus on subjects that are too close to the camera or that are not
suited to autofocus (the AF conrmation mark will blink in the monitor). Increase the
distance to the subject or focus on a high contrast object at the same distance from the
camera as your main subject, compose the shot, and shoot.
Subjects that are difcult to focus on
It may be difcult to focus with auto focus in the following situations.
Subject with low
contrast
Excessively bright
light in center of frame
AF conrmation
mark is blinking.
These subjects
are not focused.
Subjects at different
distances
Fast-moving subject Subject not inside
AF area
AF conrmation
mark lights up but
the subject is not
focused.
Noise reduction is activated
When shooting night scenes, shutter speeds are slower and noise tends to appear in
images. The camera activates the noise-reduction process after shooting at slow shutter
speeds. During which, shooting is not allowed. You can set [Noise Reduct.] to [Off].
g [Noise Reduct.] (P. 134)
Image taken appears whitish
This may occur when the picture is taken in backlight or semi-backlight conditions. This is
due to a phenomenon called are or ghosting. As far as possible, consider a composition
where strong light source is not taken in the picture. Flare may occur even when a light
source is not present in the picture. Use a lens hood to shade the lens from the light
source. If a lens hood does not have effect, use your hand to shade the lens from the light.
g “Interchangeable lenses” (P. 155)
Unknown bright dot(s) appear on the subject in the picture taken
This may be due to stuck pixel(s) on the image pickup device. Perform [Pixel Mapping].
If the problem persists, repeat pixel mapping a few times. g “Pixel Mapping - Checking the
image processing functions” (P. 163)

The subject appears distorted
The following functions use an electronic shutter:
movie recording (P. 65)/silent (P. 78)/the SCN mode panorama (P. 38),
“silent” (P. 38), and “multi-focus shot” (P. 39) options/the Z mode “silent” (P. 45),
panorama (P. 46), and “focus bracketing” (P. 49) options
This may cause distortion if the subject is moving rapidly or the camera is moved abruptly.
Avoid moving the camera abruptly during shooting or use standard sequential shooting.
Lines appear in photographs
The following functions use an electronic shutter, which may result in lines due to icker and
other phenomena associated with uorescent and LED lighting, an effect that can sometimes
be reduced by choosing slower shutter speeds:
movie recording (P. 65)/silent (P. 78)/the SCN mode panorama (P. 38),
“silent” (P. 38), and “multi-focus shot” (P. 39) options/the Z mode “silent” (P. 45),
panorama (P. 46), and “focus bracketing” (P. 49) options
The camera is stuck in manual focus (MF) mode
Some lenses are equipped with a manual focus clutch that engages manual focus when the
focus ring is slid back. Check the lens. g [MF Clutch Lenses] (P. 156)
Changing the number of frames or adding frames to the index

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 in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.
