In the ISO setting, although smaller values result in
less sensitivity, sharp images can be taken under fully
lit conditions. Larger values result in higher sensitivity,
and images can be taken at fast shutter speeds even
under low light conditions. However, high sensitivity
introduces noise into the resulting picture, which may
give it a grainy appearance.

temperature may increase, resulting in automatic
shutdown. If this occurs, remove the battery from
the camera and wait until the camera has sufficiently
cooled. The camera’s external temperature may
also increase during use, however this is normal and
does not indicate malfunction.

Shooting tips
When you are unsure of how to take a picture that you
envision, refer to the information below.
Object with no vertical lines*1
Focusing
*1
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.
“Focusing on the subject”
● Taking a picture of a subject not in the center
of the screen
After focusing on an object at the same distance
as the subject, compose the shot, and take the
picture.
When objects are at different
distances
Pressing the shutter button halfway (p. 17)
● Set [AF Mode] (p. 35) to [Face/iESP]
● Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode (p. 35)
The camera tracks the subject movement
automatically to focus on it continuously.
Fast-moving object
● Taking a picture of a shadowy subject
Using the AF illuminator makes focusing easier.
[AF Illuminat.] (p. 36)
● Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus
is difficult
The subject is not in the center of
the frame
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 screen

● Taking pictures using exposure compensation
(p. 29)
Camera shake
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.
“Taking pictures without camera shake”
● Taking pictures using [Image Stabilizer] (p. 36)
The image pickup device shifts to correct for
camera shake 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] (p. 36)
● Select [C Sport] in the scene mode (p. 23)
The [C Sport] mode uses a fast shutter speed and
Color hue
can reduce the blur incurred by a moving subject.
“Taking pictures with colors at the same shade as
they appear”
● 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 flash cannot be used.
● Taking pictures by selecting white balance
(p. 29)
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.)

“Taking sharper pictures”
[Shadow Adjust] (p. 35)
● Taking pictures with the optical zoom
Avoid using digital zoom (p. 36) to take pictures.
● Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity
● Taking pictures using [Face/iESP] (p. 35)
Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face against
backlight, and the face is brightened.
● Taking pictures using [n] for [ESP/n]
(p. 35)
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.
Brightness is matched with a subject in the center
of the screen and the image is not affected by
background light.

products with weatherproof designs, read their manuals as well.
• In places prone to strong vibrations.
• Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.
• When attaching the camera to or removing it from a tripod,
rotate the tripod screw, not the camera.
• Before transporting the camera, remove a tripod and all other
non-OLYMPUS accessories.
• The number of pictures you can take may vary depending on
the shooting conditions or battery.
• Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling
abroad, purchase extra batteries. A recommended battery may
be difficult to obtain while traveling.
• Do not touch electric contacts on cameras.
• When storing the battery for a long period, select a cool
location for storage.
• Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s resources.
When you throw away dead batteries, be sure to cover their
terminals and always observe local laws and regulations.
• Do not leave the camera pointed directly at the sun. This may
cause lens or shutter curtain damage, color failure, ghosting on
the image pickup device, or may possibly cause fires.
• Do not push or pull severely on the lens.

batteries. Select a cool, dry location for storage to prevent
condensation or mold from forming inside the camera. After
storage, test the camera by turning it on and pressing the
shutter button to make sure that it is operating normally.
• The camera may malfunction if it is used in a location where
it is subject to a magnetic/electromagnetic field, radio waves,
or high voltage, such as near a TV set, microwave, video
game, loud speakers, large monitor unit, TV/radio tower, or
transmission towers. In such cases, turn the camera off and on
again before further operation.
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.
• Always observe the operating environment restrictions
described in the camera’s manual.
• 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 influence 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.
