Using Macro Mode

Macro mode allows you to take pictures of small objects at close range. When you use
macro mode, adjust the view in the viewfinder to use the close up correction marks (see
your Olympus Digital Still Camera instructions for details).

To use macro mode:

❒ Select the Macro Mode button.

Note: This is a toggle—selecting it changes between Macro and Normal mode.

When Macro mode is selected,

appears in the mode display area on the screen

and on the camera.

Using the Timer

The timer allows you to delay the shutter when you take a picture. When you use the
timer, after you press the shutter release you have about 12 seconds before the
camera takes the picture. Often this feature is used so that the photographer can be
included in the picture.

Note: Before you can use the Timer function, you must have a date and time set in

the camera. For more information on setting the date and time, see Configuring
the Camera.

To use the timer:

❒ Select the Self-Timer button.

Note: This is a toggle—selecting it again turns off the self-timer.

When the self-timer is selected,

and on the camera.
