Pop Art I/II Creates an image that emphasizes the beauty of color. Soft Focus Creates an image that expresses a soft tone atmosphere. Pale&Light Color I/II Creates an image that expresses warm light by scattering overall light and slightly overexposing the image. Light Tone Creates a high-quality image by softening both shadows and highlights. Grainy Film I/II Creates an image that expresses the roughness of black and white images. Pin Hole I/II/III Creates an image that looks as if it was taken using an old or toy camera by dimming the image perimeter. Diorama I/II Creates a miniature-like image by emphasizing saturation and contrast, and blurring unfocused areas. Cross Process I/II Creates an image that expresses a surreal atmosphere. Cross Process II creates an image that emphasizes magenta. Gentle Sepia Creates a high-quality image by drawing out shadows and softening the overall image. Dramatic Tone I/II Creates an image that emphasizes the difference between brightness and darkness by partially increasing contrast. Key Line I/II Creates an image that emphasizes edges and adds an illustrative style. Watercolor I/II Creates a soft, bright image by removing dark areas, blending pale colors on a white canvas, and further softening contours. Vintage I/II/III Expresses an everyday shot in a nostalgic, vintage tone using printed fi lm discoloration and fading. Partial Color I/II/III Impressively expresses a subject by extracting colors you want to emphasize and keeping everything else monotone. Bleach Bypass I/II The “bleach bypass” effect, which you may recognize from motion pictures and the like, can be used to great effect in shots of streetscapes or metal objects. II and III are altered versions of the original (I).

Choosing shutter speed ( Shutter Priority mode)

S mode is a shooting mode where you choose the shutter speed and let the camera automatically adjust to the appropriate aperture value. Rotate the mode dial to S and then use the rear dial to select shutter speed. Fast shutter speeds freeze motion of fast-moving subjects. Slow shutter speeds add motion by blurring moving subjects.

You can fi x the brightness of the display so that you can keep the subject in view while shooting. g [Live View Boost] (P. 110) • Even when you have set [Noise Reduct.], noise and/or light spots may still be noticeable in the image displayed on the monitor and shot images under certain environmental conditions (temperature etc.) and camera settings. Noise in images While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on screen. These phenomena occur when the temperature rises in the image pickup device or image pickup device internal drive circuit, causing current to be generated in those sections of the image pickup device that are not normally exposed to light. This can also occur when shooting with a high ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce this noise, the camera activates the noise reduction function. g [Noise Reduct.] (P. 111)

Faces detected by the camera are indicated by white frames.

Changing ISO sensitivity (ISO)

Increasing ISO sensitivity increases noise (graininess) but allows photographs to be taken when lighting is poor. The setting recommended in most situations is [AUTO], which starts at ISO 200—a value that balances noise and dynamic range—and then adjusts ISO sensitivity according to shooting conditions. 1 Press F. 2 Rotate the front dial to choose an option. AUTO The sensitivity is set automatically according to the shooting conditions. The maximum ISO sensitivity value and other auto ISO settings can be adjusted using the [ISO-Auto Set] option in custom menus (P. 111). LOW, 200–25600 The sensitivity is set to the selected value.

Program Auto 1023 1:02:03 n P A S M WB AUTO WB AUTO C-AF C-AF ISO AUTO P L F Movie (exposure) mode P Optimal aperture is set automatically according to the brightness of the subject. Use the front dial (r) or rear dial (o) to adjust exposure compensation. A Depiction of background is changed by setting the aperture. Use the front dial (r) to adjust exposure compensation and rear dial (o) to adjust aperture. S Shutter speed affects how the subject appears. Use the front dial (r) to adjust exposure compensation and rear dial (o) to adjust shutter speed. Shutter speed can be set to values between 1/24 s and 1/4000 s. M Aperture and shutter speed can be manually set. Use the front dial (r) to select aperture value and the rear dial (o) to select shutter speed. Shutter speed can be set to values between 1/24 s and 1/4000 s. ISO sensitivity can only be set manually to values between 200 and 6400. • Blurred frames caused by such factors as the subject moving while the shutter is open can be reduced by selecting the fastest available shutter speed. • The low end of the shutter speed changes according to the frame rate of the movie record mode. • Excessive camera shake may not be compensated enough. • When the inside of the camera becomes hot, shooting is automatically stopped to protect the camera. • With some art fi lters, [C-AF] function is limited.

M-IS The camera uses both sensor shift (VCM) and electronic correction. M-IS The camera uses sensor shift (VCM) correction only. Electronic correction is not used. • The image stabilizer cannot correct excessive camera shake or camera shake that occurs when the shutter speed is set to the slowest speed. In these cases, it is recommended that you use a tripod. • When using a tripod, set [Image Stabilizer] to [S-IS Off]/[M-IS Off]. • When using a lens with an image stabilization function switch, priority is given to the lens side setting. • You may notice an operating sound or vibration when the image stabilizer is activated. Using lenses other than Micro Four Thirds/Four Thirds System lenses You can use focal length information to reduce camera shake when shooting with lenses that are not Micro Four Thirds or Four Thirds system lenses. • Press the INFO button while [Image Stabilizer] is selected, use FGHI to highlight a focal length, and press the Q button. • Choose a focal length between 0.1 mm and 1000.0 mm. • Choose the value that matches the one printed on the lens. • Selecting [Reset] (basic) in Shooting Menu 1 does not reset the focal length.
