When activated [ON], the camera will record about 4 seconds of
audio after the picture is taken.
When recording, aim the camera microphone at the source of the
sound you want to record.
Panorama shooting lets you create a panoramic picture, using the OLYMPUS Master
software on the provided CD-ROM. An Olympus xD-Picture Card is required for panorama
shooting.
Use the arrow pad to specify at which edge you want to connect the pictures; and then
compose your shots so that the edges of the pictures overlap. The part of the previous
picture where it will be joined to the next picture does not remain in the frame. You have to
remember what the part in the frame looked like and take the next picture so it overlaps.

A low value lowers the sensitivity for daylight shooting of clear, sharp
pictures. The higher the value, the better the camera’s light sensitivity
and ability to shoot with a fast shutter speed and in low light conditions.
However, high sensitivity introduces noise into the resulting picture,
which may give it a grainy appearance.

There are several ways to focus, depending on the subject.
When the subject is not in the center of the frame
• Place the subject in the center of the frame, lock the focus on the subject, and then
recompose your picture.
g “Shutter button Shooting pictures/Recording movies” (P. 11)
The subject is moving quickly
• Focus the camera on a point roughly the same distance away as the subject you want to
shoot (by pressing the shutter button halfway); and then recompose your picture and wait
for the subject to enter the frame.
• Under certain types of conditions, it is difficult to focus using auto focus.
In these cases, focus (focus lock) on an object with high contrast at the same distance as
the intended subject, recompose your shot and then take the picture. If the subject has
no vertical lines, hold the camera vertically and focus the camera using the focus lock
function by pressing the shutter button halfway, and then return the camera to the
horizontal position while keeping the button pressed halfway and take the picture.
Hold the camera correctly and press the shutter button gently to shoot the picture. In
addition, blurring is reduced when taking pictures in the h mode.
g “h Shooting pictures using digital image stabilization” (P. 13)
The factors that can cause the picture to blur are as follows:
• When you zoom at a high magnification to shoot the picture
• When the shutter speed is set low to shoot a dark subject
• When the flash cannot be used or a low shutter speed set f mode is selected.
The flash fires automatically when insufficient light is available and may cause your image
to be blurry.
When taking pictures in low lights without the flash, set the flash mode to [$] (flash off), then
increase the ISO sensitivity.

There are several factors that can cause the picture to appear grainy.
Using the digital zoom to take close-up pictures
• With the digital zoom, part of the image is cropped and enlarged. The greater the
magnification, the grainier the picture appears.
g “Zoom lever Zooming while shooting/Close-up playback” (P. 17)
Increasing the ISO sensitivity
• When you increase the [ISO] setting, “noise”, which appears as spots of unwanted color
or unevenness in the color, can be introduced and give the picture a grainy appearance.
This camera is equipped with a function to allow shooting at high sensitivity while
suppressing noise; however, increasing the ISO sensitivity can result in some noise,
depending on the shooting conditions.
g “ISO Changing the ISO sensitivity” (P. 22)
Taking pictures with the f mode set to M, W, S or X
• When taking pictures of dark subjects using the above scene modes, the picture may
appear grainy.
g “f Shooting pictures by selecting a scene mode according to the situation” (P. 13)
• The reason why there are sometimes differences between the actual colors and the colors
recorded in a picture is related to the light source illuminating the subject. [WB] is the
function that helps the camera determine the true colors. Normally, the [AUTO] setting
provides the optimal white balance, but depending on the subject, results may be better if
you manually adjust the [WB] setting.
• When the subject is in the shade on a sunny day
• When the subject is illuminated by both natural light and indoor lighting, such as
when near a window
• When there is no white in the center of the frame
g “WB Adjusting the color of a picture” (P. 21)
• Often, bright subjects (such as snow) turn out darker than their natural colors. Adjusting
OF toward [+] makes the subject closer to their real shades. Conversely, when you are
shooting dark subjects, it can be effective to adjust toward [–]. Sometimes, using the flash
may not produce the brightness (exposure) that was intended.
g “OF/< button Changing picture brightness (Exposure compensation)/
Printing pictures” (P. 15)
• Set the flash to [#] (fill-in) to activate fill-in-flash. You can shoot a subject against backlight
without the face of the subject appearing dark. [#] is effective not only for shooting against
backlight, but also for shooting under fluorescent and other artificial lighting.
g “Y# button Flash shooting” (P. 16)
• Setting OF to [+] is effective when shooting against backlight.
g “OF/< button Changing picture brightness (Exposure compensation)/
Printing pictures” (P. 15)
• When [FACE DETECT] is set to [ON], faces in pictures appears bright, since adequate
exposure for the detected face can be obtained even under backlight conditions.

There are two ways to record the pictures you take with this camera.
Recording pictures to the internal memory
• Pictures are recorded to the internal memory, and when the number of storable still
pictures reaches 0, you connect the camera to a computer to download the pictures; and
then erase the pictures from the internal memory.
Using a card (xD-Picture Card) (optional)
• Pictures are recorded to the card when inserted in the camera. When the card is full, you
download the pictures to a computer and then either erase the pictures from the card or
use a new card.
• Pictures are not recorded to the internal memory when a card is inserted in the camera.
Pictures in the internal memory can be copied to the card using the [BACKUP] function.

noise, or smoke around it.
• Never remove the batteries with bare hands, which may cause a fire or burn your hands.
( Never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.
( Do not leave the camera in places where it may be subject to extremely
high temperatures.
• Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate and, in some circumstances, cause the camera to
catch fire. Do not use the charger if it is covered (such as a blanket). This could cause
overheating, resulting in fire.
( Handle the camera with care to avoid getting a low-temperature burn.
• When the camera contains metal parts, overheating can result in a low-temperature burn.
Pay attention to the following:
• When used for a long period, the camera will get hot. If you hold on to the camera in this
state, a low-temperature burn may be caused.
• In places subject to extremely cold temperatures, the temperature of the camera’s body
may be lower than the environmental temperature. If possible, wear gloves when handling
the camera in cold temperatures.
( Be careful with the strap.
• Be careful with the strap when you carry the camera. It could easily catch on stray objects -
and cause serious damage.
DANGER
• The camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by Olympus. Charge the battery with the specified
charger. Do not use any other chargers.
• Never heat or incinerate batteries.
• Take precautions when carrying or storing batteries to prevent them from coming into contact with
any metal objects such as jewelry, pins, fasteners, etc.
Handling the Camera
Battery Handling Precautions
Follow these important guidelines to prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, burning,
exploding, or causing electrical shocks or burns.
• Never store batteries where they will be exposed to direct sunlight, or subjected to high
temperatures in a hot vehicle, near a heat source, etc.
• To prevent causing battery leaks or damaging their terminals, carefully follow all instructions
regarding the use of batteries. Never attempt to disassemble a battery or modify it in any way, by
soldering, etc.
• If battery fluid gets into your eyes, flush your eyes immediately with clear, cold running water and
seek medical attention immediately.
• Always store batteries out of the reach of small children. If a child accidentally swallows a battery,
seek medical attention immediately.
WARNING
• Keep batteries dry at all times.
• To prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, or causing a fire or explosion, use only batteries
recommended for use with this product.
• Insert the battery carefully as described in the operating instructions.
• If rechargeable batteries have not been recharged within the specified time, stop charging them
and do not use them.
• Do not use a battery if it is cracked or broken.
• If a battery leaks, becomes discolored or deformed, or becomes abnormal in any other way during
operation, stop using the camera.
• If a battery leaks fluid onto your clothing or skin, remove the clothing and flush the affected area
with clean, running cold water immediately. If the fluid burns your skin, seek medical attention
immediately.
• Never subject batteries to strong shocks or continuous vibration.
CAUTION
• Before loading, always inspect the battery carefully for leaks, discoloration, warping, or any other
abnormality.
• The battery may become hot during prolonged use. To avoid minor burns, do not remove it
immediately after using the camera.
• Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the camera for a long period.
• To protect the high-precision technology contained in this product, never leave the camera in the
places listed below, no matter if in use or storage:
• Places where temperatures and/or humidity are high or go through extreme changes. Direct
sunlight, beaches, locked cars, or near other heat sources (stove, radiator, etc.) or humidifiers.
• In sandy or dusty environments.
• Near flammable items or explosives.
• In wet places, such as bathrooms or in the rain. When using 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 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 fires.
• Do not push or pull severely on the lens.
• Before storing the camera for a long period, remove the battery. 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 release button to make sure that it is operating
normally.
• Always observe the operating environment restrictions described in the camera’s manual.
Caution for Usage Environment
• This camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by Olympus. Do not use any other type of battery.
For safe and proper use, read the battery’s instruction manual carefully before using it.
• 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
spare battery as warm as possible. A battery that 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.
• Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague, resulting in a playback
mode failure or damage to the LCD 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.
