GETTING STARTED Loading the batteries
This camera uses a CR-V3 lithium battery pack or 2 AA (R6) NiMH batteries, NiCd batteries, alkaline batteries or lithium batteries. Important: ● CR-V3 lithium battery packs cannot be charged. ● Do not peel the label on a CR-V3 lithium battery pack. If an insulating sheet covers the terminals, peel it off ONLY from the terminals.
Make sure the camera is turned off (i.e. the lens barrier is closed and the monitor if turned off).
When using a lithium battery pack
Using the AC power adapter (optional)
Use an AC adapter designed for the area where the camera is used. Consult your nearest Olympus dealer or Service center for details.
01.10.11 9:39 AM Page 17
Inserting/ejecting the card
Be sure to use a 3V (3.3 V) card. Non-Olympus 3 V (3.3 V) cards must be formatted with the camera. Do not use a 5 V card or a 2 MB card.
Make sure the camera is turned off (i.e. the lens barrier is closed and the monitor if turned off).
Open the card cover.
Insert the card all the way with the contact area facing towards the lens side so that the label’s edge is aligned with the guideline (É) printed on the camera.
● Insert the card while keeping it straight. Be sure not to insert it an angle. ● Note the orientation of the card. If it is inserted incorrectly, it may become jammed. ● If the card is not inserted fully, the card cover will not close. Closing the card cover forcibly will damage the card cover.
Grasp the card and pull in straight out.

SHOOTING BASICS Shooting mode setting — Mode dial
Full-auto shooting Allows you to take still pictures using NO special functions or manual adjustments. The camera sets optimal focusing and exposure. Suitable for simple shooting.
Suitable for shooting a portrait-style shot of a person. This mode features an in-focus subject against a blurred background. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
Landscape-Portrait shooting
For example, if you want to take a picture with a beautiful background, you will want to have both your subject and the background in focus. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
Landscape-Scene shooting
Suitable for taking pictures of landscapes and other outdoor scenes landscape. The camera focuses on a distant subject (tree, mountain, etc.) and the picture comes out clear. Since blues and greens are reproduced vividly in this mode, the Landscape-Scene mode is excellent for shooting natural scenery. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
01.10.11 9:39 AM Page 20
SHOOTING BASICS (Cont.)
Night Scene shooting Suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. For example, if you take a picture of a street at night in the mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark picture with only the sparkle of lights such as street lamps appearing. In the Night Scene shooting mode, the true appearance of the street can be captured. The camera automatically selects the optimal settings for this type of shooting condition.
Self-Portrait shooting
Enables you to take a picture of yourself while holding the camera. Point the lens towards you and take a shot. The focus is locked on you (shooter). The camera automatically selects the optimal settings for this type of shooting condition. Zooming is not possible.
Allows you to take still pictures. The camera sets aperture and shutter speed. Other functions, such as flash modes and drive modes, can be adjusted manually.
Aperture priority/Shutter priority/Manual shooting
Allows you to set aperture and/or shutter speed manually. When the mode dial is set to A/S/M, the following items can be set with the menus:
A (Aperture priority shooting)
You set the aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed.
S (Shutter priority shooting)
You set the shutter speed and the camera sets the aperture.
You set both the aperture and shutter speed.
Allows you to take still pictures. Your favorite settings can be saved in MY MODE SETUP (in the menu’s SETUP). Customized settings are activated when the power is turned on in the mode. The shortcut menu can also include different items than the shortcut menus in the P or A/S/M mode.
Allows you to record movies. The camera sets the aperture and shutter speed automatically. Even if the subject moves during recording or the distance to the subject changes, correct focusing and exposure are maintained continuously.
01.10.11 9:39 AM Page 21
When displaying menus, the first screen that appears on the monitor is called the top menu. The contents of this menu change depending on the mode. On the top menu, two types of menus are available: MODE MENU and the other menus (shortcut menus). Shortcut menu ß The shortcut menu consists of the items other than MODE MENU on the Top menu.

There are 2 metering methods: Digital ESP metering and spot metering. Digital ESP metering: Meters the center of the subject and the area around it. Spot metering: Exposure is determined by metering within the AF target mark. In this mode, a subject can be shot with optimal exposure regardless of the background light. In the working range of the macro mode, spot metering is also available (spot metering+macro mode). Press the button repeatedly until (Spot metering) or (Spot metering+Macro mode) appears on the control panel.
01.10.11 9:39 AM Page 33
Usually focusing is slow when you get as close as 0.1 m - 0.8 m (0.3 ft - 2.6 ft) to the subject. However, in the mode focusing is performed quickly. The (macro) mode allows you to shoot close to the subject (within 0.1 m - 0.8 m (0.3 ft - 2.6 ft)). With the zoom lever is pressed to the maximum W position, you can fill the entire frame with your subject. If you are close to a subject, the picture area in the viewfinder is different from the picture that the camera actually records. For macro mode shooting, we recommend using the monitor. Press the button repeatedly until (Macro mode) or metering+Macro mode) appears on the control panel.
Exposure Compensation
This function allows you to make fine changes to the present exposure setting. In some situations, you may get better results when the exposure that the camera sets is compensated (adjusted) manually. You can adjust between +/–2.0 in 1/2 steps.
