that you envision, refer to the information below.
The subject is not in the center
of the frame
Focusing
“Focusing on the subject”
Camera shake
● Taking a picture of a subject not in the center
of the screen
“Taking pictures without camera shake”
After focusing on an object at the same distance
as the subject, compose the shot, and take the
picture.
● Taking pictures using h mode (p. 18).
● Select j (SPORT) in f mode (p. 27)
Pressing the shutter button halfway (p. 14)
AF lock (p. 17)
● 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.
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.
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.

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.
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
F button 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.

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. The resulting image
is grainier than with low ISO sensitivity as well.

Battery Handling Precautions
• This camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by
Olympus. Do not use any other type of battery.
• If the battery’s terminals get wet or greasy, camera
contact failure may result. Wipe the battery well
with a dry cloth before use.
• Always charge a battery when using it for the first
time, or if it has not been used for a long period.
• When operating the camera with battery power
at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and

has run down at low temperatures may be restored
after it is warmed at room temperature.
• 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.
• 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.
LCD 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 LCD
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. An LCD
monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low
temperatures will recover in normal temperatures.
• The LCD used for the monitor is made with
high-precision technology. However, black spots
or bright spots of light may appear constantly on
the LCD Monitor. Due to its characteristics or the
angle at which you are viewing the monitor, the
spot may not be uniform in color and brightness.
This is not a malfunction.
