Timelapse shooting
Pressing the shutter button after setting the amount of images, shooting interval and setting
this function to [ON], the first frame will be taken, and the camera takes the remaining frames
thereafter automatically. The camera automatically enters sleep mode (p. 57) after the first frame
has been saved. Sleep mode is exited around 7 seconds before the next shot. Once the preset
number of frames is taken, the camera automatically turns off.
Use of new batteries or an AC adapter is recommended when taking frames over an extended period
of time.
If any of the following operations are performed while the camera is in sleep mode, the camera
cancels timelapse mode and returns to normal shooting: opening of the battery compartment cover or
card cover, connecting the camera to a computer, pressing the shutter button or arrow pad.
If the internal memory or card or the battery power runs out during sleep mode, a warning is
displayed, [TIMELAPSE] mode is canceled and the camera automatically turns off.

OFF
No conversion lens is used (camera
body only).

The camera takes pictures by
attaching a conversion lens specified
by Olympus (sold separately).
When a conversion lens is attached, light
from the built-in flash can cause vignetting
where shadows from the conversion lens
appear on the images.
When a conversion lens is attached, the
camera may take extra time to focus.
Adjust the settings for the functions while referring to “Using the Menu” (p. 3).
