Value
Description
The camera automatically adjusts the sensitivity according to the shooting scene.
The ISO sensitivity is fi xed to the selected value.
“ISO” is short for “International Organization for Standardization.” ISO standards specify the sensitivity for digital cameras and fi lm, thus codes such as “ISO 100” are used to represent sensitivity.
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.

Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus is dif fi
In the following cases, after focusing on an object

Camera shake
“Taking pictures without camera shake”
●
●
Taking pictures using N mode (p. 26)
Select C (SPORT) in s mode (p. 26)
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.
“Selecting the ISO sensitivity” (p. 32)
Exposure (brightness)
“Taking pictures with the right brightness”
● Taking pictures using [FILL IN] (p. 30) fl ash
A subject against backlight is brightened.
● Taking pictures using exposure compensation
(p. 31)
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 with colors at the same shade as they appear”
● Taking pictures by selecting white balance
(p. 32)
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 arti fi cial light settings, and so on.)
Image quality
“Taking sharper pictures”
● Taking pictures with the optical zoom
Avoid using digital zoom (p. 21) 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. The resulting image is grainier than with low ISO sensitivity as well.

Camera care
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 wrung well.
Monitor
• Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
Lens
• Blow dust off the lens with a commercial blower, then wipe gently with a lens cleaner.
Battery/USB-AC adapter
• Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use strong solvents such as benzene or alcohol, or chemically treated cloth.
Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty.
Storage
•
•
When storing the camera for extended periods, remove the battery, USB-AC adapter and card, and keep in a cool, dry place that is well ventilated.
Periodically insert the battery and test the camera functions.
Avoid leaving the camera in places where chemical products are handled since this may result in corrosion.
The battery and USB-AC adapter
• This camera uses one Olympus lithium ion battery
(LI-80B). No other type of batteries can be used.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Caution:
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with the incorrect battery type.
Dispose of the used battery following the instructions.
(p. 65)
Power consumption by the camera varies depending on which functions are used.
•
•
During the conditions described below, power is consumed continuously and the battery becomes exhausted quickly.
•
The zoom is used repeatedly.
The shutter button is pressed halfway repeatedly in shooting mode, activating the auto focus.
A picture is displayed on the monitor for an extended
• period of time.
The camera is connected to a computer or printer.
Using an exhausted battery may cause the camera to turn off without displaying the battery level warning.
The rechargeable battery is not fully charged at the time of purchase. Use the supplied F-2AC USB-AC adapter
(hereafter referred to as USB-AC adapter) to charge the battery before use.
When the included USB-AC adapter is used, charging usually takes approximately 4 hours (varies on usage).
The included USB-AC adapter has been designed to be used only for charging. Make sure that operations such as shooting, viewing images and so on are not being used while the USB-AC adapter is connected to the camera.
58 EN
•
•
The included USB-AC adapter is designed to be used only with this camera. Other cameras cannot be charged with this USB-AC adapter.
Do not use with other devices.
For plug-in type USB-AC adapter:
The included USB-AC adapter is intended to be correctly orientated in a vertical or fl oor mount position.
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
(50/60Hz) 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. For details, ask at your local electrical shop or travel agent.
Do not use travel voltage converters as they could damage your USB-AC adapter.
Using an SD/SDHC memory card
A card (and internal memory) also corresponds to the fi lm that records images in a fi lm camera. Otherwise, the recorded images (data) can be erased, and retouching is also available with the use of a computer. Cards can be removed from the camera and exchanged, but this is not possible with the internal memory. Use of larger capacity cards enables you to take more pictures.
The SD/SDHC card body has a write-protect switch. If you set the switch to the “LOCK” side, you will not be able to write to the card, delete data or format. Release the switch to enable writing.
LOCK
SD/SDHC memory cards (visit the Olympus website for information on memory cards that have been tested and approved for use)
EN 59
Cards must be formatted with this camera before fi rst use or after being used with other cameras or computers.
[MEMORY FORMAT]/[FORMAT] (p. 40)
During shooting, the current memory indicator lights in red while the camera is writing data. Never open the battery/card compartment cover or unplug the USB cable.
This can not only damage the image data but also render the internal memory or card unusable.
The memory indicator shows whether the internal memory or card is being used during shooting and playback.

•
Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.
When mounted on a tripod, adjust the position of the camera with the tripod head. Do not twist the camera.
Do not touch electric contacts on cameras.
Do not leave the camera pointed directly at the sun. This may cause lens or shutter curtain damage, color failure, ghosting on the CCD, or may possibly cause fi res.
Do not push or pull severely on the lens.
Before storing the camera for a long period, remove the 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 fi eld, 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.
Always observe the operating environment restrictions described in the camera’s manual.
• 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
