CAUTION
Selecting Batteries for Your Camera
This camera can use four AA NiMH batteries, four AA Alkaline
batteries, four AA lithium batteries, four AA NiCd batteries, or two CR-
V3 lithium battery packs. Use of Olympus brand batteries is strongly
recommended.
Alkaline battery performance is limited, especially at low
temperatures. Using NiMH batteries is recommended.
manganese batteries cannot be used with this camera.AA
Always follow the battery recommendations and loading instructions.
Incorrectly loading the batteries could cause the batteries to leak or
overheating.
When using the camera on battery power at low temperatures, try to
keep the camera and extra batteries as warm as possible. Batteries
which run down at low temperatures may be restored after they are
warmed at ambient temperature.
Perspiration or oil from your hands on the battery contacts could
prevent them from operating. Before loading batteries, wipe the
terminals with a dry, clean cloth.
Before going on a long trip, especially before traveling abroad,
purchase an ample supply of extra batteries. The recommended
batteries may be dicult to obtain while traveling.
Always recharge NiMH or NiCd batteries with a charger
recommended for use with these batteries.
Before using NiMH or NiCd batteries, always read the instructions
provided with purchase of these batteries.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the camera, always inspect
batteries before loading. If you notice leaking, damage to the battery
cover or insulation, discoloration, warping or any other abnormality do
not use the batteries.

NOTES
LCD Display and Backlight
Do not point the viewnder towards strong light like the sun, as this may
damage interior of the viewnder.
The backlight built into the monitor and control panel has a limited service
life. When the monitor gets dark and jittery, consult your nearest Olympus
dealer.
In places subject to low temperatures, the backlight 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 warm
place. A backlight exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will
recover in normal temperatures.
Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague,
resulting in a Display mode failure or damage to the monitor.
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 Display mode.
A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a
malfunction.
The LCD display is made with high-precision technology. However,
black spots or bright spots of light may appear constantly on the LCD
display. 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.

CR-V3 lithium battery packs cannot be charged.
Alkaline batteries have a lot of variation in their performance and deteriorate
particularly at low temperatures. It is recommended that lithium battery
packs or NiMH batteries be used.
Manganese batteries cannot be used. Please read the cautions concerning
batteries. (See page 19.)
If the terminals inside the battery compartment are dirty, it will noticeably
shorten the life of the batteries. Do not touch the inside of the battery
compartment.
If the camera is left for 1 week with the batteries removed, all the internal
settings will revert to the default settings.
Note:
Caution:
Do not use batteries whose bodies are not completely covered by an
insulating sheet. If such batteries are used, they may cause leakage,
excessive heat, or explosion. Some batteries are sold with a partial
insulating sheet, or without any insulating sheet at all. Do not use these
batteries under any circumstances.
The following AA batteries cannot be used.
Batteries whose bodies are only partially covered,
or not covered at all, by an insulating sheet.
Batteries whose terminals are raised, but not covered
by an insulating sheet.
Batteries whose terminals are flat and not
completely covered by an insulating sheet. (Such
batteries cannot be used even if the terminals
are partially covered.)

Taking portrait pictures
A portrait-style photograph features an in-focus subject against a blurred
background. Your camera oers two dierent ways of achieving this eect.
mWith the mode dial set to S-Prg,
select S-Prg in the Menu (P.
86).
Focus on the subject. Exposure is
adjusted automatically according to the
conditions.
mSet the mode dial to “A”, then manually
set the aperture to a lower value. (P. 87)
By decreasing the aperture value, you will
force the camera to focus within a smaller
range, producing a picture with a blurred
background.
Taking pictures of moving subjects
If the subject of your photograph is moving quickly such as athletes in a
sports scene or fast-moving vehicles, you can adjust the shutter speed to
capture the action without blurring or to heighten the sense of movement by
blurring the action. To capture fast-moving action precisely without blurring,
set the shutter speed to higher value. On the other hand, if you want your
photograph to have a sense of motion, set the shutter speed to a lower value.
This will blur the main subject, while the background remains clear.
Your camera oers two dierent ways of achieving these eects.
mWith the mode dial set to S-Prg,
select S-Prg in the Menu
(p.86).
Focus on the subject. Exposure is
adjusted automatically according to the
conditions.
mSet the mode dial to “S”, then select the
shutter speed manually (p.88).

Taking pictures focusing on both
subject and the background
For example, if you want to take a picture with a beautiful background when
you are on travel, you will want to have both your subject and the background
in focus.
Your camera oers two dierent ways of achieving this eect.
mWith the mode dial set to S-Prg,
select S-Prg in the Menu
(p.86).
Focus on the subject. Exposure is
adjusted automatically according to the
conditions.
mSet the mode dial to “A”, then set the
aperture manually to a higher value.
(p.87)
Increasing the value forces your camera to
focus over a wider range to the
forward/backward directions, resulting in a
picture in which both the subject and the
background are in focus.

SHOOTING WITH FLASH
6
107
6
The flash fires regardless of
available light. This mode is useful
for eliminating shadows on the
subjects face or for correcting the
color shift produced by artificial
lighting (especially fluorescent light).
This mode significantly reduces the
phenomenon of “red-eyeby emitting
about 10 pre-flashes before firing the
regular flash. This mode works the
same way as the auto-flash except
for the pre-flashes.
The flash does not fire even in low-
light conditions. Use this mode in
situations where flash photography
is not desired or prohibited, or when
you want to shoot a natural-looking
twilight or night scene. To use this
mode, push the flash back into the
camera.
● Since a slow shutter speed is automatically selected in low-light situations
when in the OFF mode, the use of a tripod is recommended to prevent
blurred pictures caused by camera shake.
Note:
● It takes about 1 sec. before the Shutter is released.
● Effectiveness may be limited if the subject is not looking directly at the
preflashes, or if the shooting range is too far. Individual physical
characteristics may also limit effectiveness.
● The mode is not available when the Mode dial is set to M and S-Prg–Sports.
Note:
● It may not have the desired effect under excessively bright light.
