5 Unpopular Features But Useful On Olympus Cameras

[@robinwong]

Let's be honest, did you know the Lightbox Preview option exist in Olympus cameras?

[@paja13]

didnt know about it! omg nice one!! :)

[@allencrider]

Not me!

[@Bakin]

No, I was not aware of that feature. Hidden gem.

[@RTFM70]

Nope, thanks for letting us know 👍

[@garys639]

I'll join the negatives,Robin. Knew all the others though.Good to see you stil healthy. Continue your interesting vids ,good Sir.

[@paulthomas8986]

Robin your channel is Olympus Gold. Your videos will be valuable to Olympus users for years to come. Thanks for the work you do.

[@robinwong]

Thanks, you are very kind. Will continue to do my best sharing what I can here.

[@vstev86]

New camera user and can confirm this is the truth!

[@charleswendt4868]

My Canon FTB from 1970 had a DOF feature.

[@cmartin_ok]

This video shows why we need a good printed user manual with each new camera, so we can easily find out all the features - and not have to rely upon the experts like Robin to show us that they are present but not intuitive or easy to find

[@ted356]

I watch Robin’s videos. Rob Trek is good too, and Robin has collaborated with him. Reading the dpreview site, as always, can also,help. I don’t read Japanese, but I assume if I did, there are more resources that English language users never see.

[@santiagosaldana2015]

I use the DoF preview, especially on vacation taking environmental portraits. Sometimes you want the back blurred and others you don't want to destroy the view behind, like those "wonderful bokeh" photos in Paris with... is that the Eiffel Tower behind?

[@jamesalamb]

I’ve used Dof preview since my OM1 and diopter adjustment since my OM4, but hadn’t realised any uses for test shot and light box. Brilliant tips, thank you.

[@billpanuska5775]

Another enjoyable video. I have used depth of field preview and the diopter tips, but the other three surprised me. Thanks.

[@robinwong]

Glad I can still share something useful!

[@nitehawk86]

I am surprised that people feel like they don't need DoF. It is about the only way to use the Rokinon 85mm f/1.2 on the metabones speed booster.

[@simontaylor9991]

Omg, the time you have saved me deleting flash test shots. Thank you.

[@lysippus5614]

Very informative video. I will certainly try test with Flash and DOF preview with macro. Diopter adjustment is essential as I wear glasses.

[@Sunshineleroy]

Robin, thanks. I did learn one thing that I didn't know/do before. That is holding down the Liveview button enabled quick access to the menu option. Great and thanks!

[@robinwong]

I have shared that in my older OM-D tips videos. Do check them out too.

[@lucavascon1498]

Yes, I knew some of the hidden gems, and I use dof preview since I started photographing! but for sure not all of them. I am analyzing your way of communicating, and I do really appreciate the way you explain things and the clarity of mind mood you keep with the audience. I'd listen to you till the end. even if you told things I already knew because I'm learning new ways to tell them. You are a good teacher, sir. :-)

[@michaelgabes7574]

I saw Lightbox in the Olympus menu, but didn't understand its use, until you explained it perfectly. Testshot what a nonsense! ...but in flash situations!? ...yes its definitly faster, than shoot and delete (less button-clicks) Your context to some of the functions is so enlightning. ...and will never be found on paper in a manual. ...therefore, thank you so much!

[@ted356]

I always learn something when I watch Robin’s videos. Appreciate the hard work and great information, Robin!

[@MrMauriziomazzoni]

Very useful video, thanks Robin! 👍👍👍

[@uTPH1]

I frequently use doc preview - a hangover from manual 3mm SLR days maybe.

[@Lizerator]

Very helpful Robin, thank you for the information.

[@keithwilkinson8310]

Thanks Robin. I wear glasses and so discovered the diopter correction early. I don't know how I could do without it. I also used to assign the DoF preview button to peaking but since getting an EM1-II that has two front buttons I have started setting the top button to peaking and leaving the bottom button as DoF preview. Using both is very useful when taking close up shots without the need to bracket aperture where depth of field is limited.

[@jeffdrew625]

#3-DOF preview: I used this constantly for macro shots on film systems. Still do for digital macro and some portraiture. I find it useful, but YMMV. Nice, helpful video! Thx!

[@subliminallyinc]

thanks for making these videos during these times. I have a great time watching them and i definitely learn in the process as well.

[@robinwong]

No worries, I shall continue to share more.

[@DeMorcan]

Lightbox was new to me and I will use it now I know it. Test was new, but not sure I will use it. DOF I use a lot and I always turn off the view finder auto switch as it switches too often when I do not want it to switch. I wish they had a sensitivity adjustment for it.

[@TheGhostplanner]

OMG… there is so much to know. And you have so much knowledge. Have you ever done a photography class?

[@marklaurendet1861]

A nice set of tips, for me the light box was a good one but could you go over it in more detail. I tried to work out a work flow below, but it probably is not the best way, and what other things can you do from the light box view. Can you mark the right image for protection etc. All I could work out was how to add the deletion flag. From what I can see these are the steps 1) find an image you want to compare 2) go to light box view, the selected image with be in the left pane 3) use front dial or < > on D pad to scroll to the image you want to compare in the right panel 4) Use read dial to magnify both images at once 5) press Fn1 to get scroll arrows on right image 6) scroll the right image to where you want it to line up with left pane image 7) press Fn1 again to get scroll bars on the left pane as well 8) use left and right D pad buttons to scroll both images together To flag an image to delete, press "rec" button to tick the image on the right pane I could not see how to protect am image from the light box view

[@cdof5981]

I used the Lightbox feature on my old E620. Yesterday I wished it was on my EM1....and today you've shown me it is. Thanks. I'm going to enable it right away.

[@robinwong]

A lot of these features came from the older days of DSLR days.

[@AlejandroNitsch]

Great video! I found out about diopter adjustment by accident: I turned the dial but didn't notice any change on the LCD screen... Then the evf was out of focus and took me a complete day to figure it out hahh dof preview is really useful, as well as the test shot feature. The other two were unknown. Thanks!

[@keithmoorechannel]

I found the diopter dial by accident a while back. I wear reading glasses and it was a game changer for me. I can now take pictures without my glasses.

[@kathleenhickey7793]

I knew about most of the feature with the exception of the lightbox, but I haven’t used them much. The depth of field option looks particularly useful. While I always enjoy your tours around your beautiful city, I have been learning a lot from these videos where you talk about the features on Olympus cameras and various skills in photography. Thanks for continuing to post in spite of the lockdown!

[@straycat1551]

Another helpful Video, thanks. I am interested in a comprehensive video on using the Olympus flash units, especially FL 900R, on the OM D E M 1 Mk ll. Is something like this planned?

[@RobTrek]

Great list of unpopular features and how to use them! Good job, Robin. Color me impressed.

[@RTFM70]

Great video Robin. I knew 3 of them but not the light box or test options. Thanks 😊

[@robinwong]

No worries, glad I could share something extra for you.

[@user-jpkarl]

Thank you Robin！Your videos do help me to master my OMD camera. Make me feel more confident to use Olympus camera. Thank you so much.

[@Bigfarmer8]

I was not aware of the lightbox option. Thanks for that tip! I use DOF preview. My OM-D E-M10 MKII is a camera that does not have a DOF preview button, so I assigned it to the record button.

[@catherinetremerryn]

Really useful, Robin., thx. Do you by any chance have a video on Olympus own flash using a diffuser?

[@johnehman8685]

Are use the toggle between the LCD and optical viewfinder so much that I have reassigned this to the AEL/AFL button for ease of reach on my E-M1 II. I have reassigned most of the function buttons for my own preference -such a great option on Olympus cameras! I also use the DOF preview a fair bit. Thanks for the suggestion about using the test picture function for flash shots. I seldom use flash, but it would indeed be handy then.

[@robinwong]

No worries, keep exploring the camera, there are many great features in it.

[@1717jbs]

Great info. Thanks Robin.

[@williamgrisenthwaite6557]

Like many others I have never used, or even knew about, Lightbox. I do use the others, depth of field I find very useful. Great video, as always.

[@robinwong]

No worries, that is the reason I am making these videos, Olympus has included many interesting features in their cameras, it is a shame some of them never see the light of the day.

[@PabloLopez-no6oq]

I use the diopter adjust for EVF, is great for my vision!

[@chrishodgin4451]

Good tips I like the depth of field preview i’am an amateur and don’t get the field right on my shots

[@timmahoney66]

I wear glasses and constantly struggle with glasses on, glasses off, viewing through the viewfinder, previewing etc. I also use depth of field, but I find the location on the front of the camera not very ergonomic. Never thought about changing the button location. Thanks fot that tip.

[@RJPhotographics]

I use DoF preview pretty often on my E-M1iii and Lumix GX8. Will be enabling lightbox preview for sure, I've been cycling back and forth through images using the front dial like a schmuck.

[@stefanhermansen8975]

I use the dof preview (for macro) and the diopter adjustment. The test picture can actually be useful for some of the stuff I do.

[@michaelshoup2703]

The diopter is a bit on the tricky side to adjust, but well worth the effort.. Just look thru the EVF, and adjust until the focus grid is sharp.. As for the LCD screen? Yeah, I just flip it around, and Bobs yer Uncle! LOL..

[@carlosdlfoto]

I didn’t know about light box and test picture. Interesting options. Thanks for your always interesting videos 👍🏻

[@olemt]

Nice one Robin! The diopter adjustment is something I use all the time. It gets out of position when taking the camera out of the bag and putting it back. Should be a way to lock that in position!

[@robinwong]

I don't think the diopter dial is so easily moved. That must be some tornado happening in your bag for that to happen.

[@allegrosotto2126]

@@robinwong Actually, I've had a similar issue with it moving, although it doesn't matter much to me as my eyesight is variable anyway, so I often need to adjust it.

[@olemt]

Robin Wong Maybe it’s just because the camera is getting old. It’s the original M5, so it has 8 years on the clock now. And the bag is a billingham with soft fabric inside with a tendency to get any kind of movable switch out of position.

[@TheMobileDJ]

Thanks you Robin

[@Esauro57]

Maybe i am one of the few who read the Manual guide so i knew and used it :-) but thank you for explaining about the use of these settings specially the test photo option. The manual is good but does not give good examples of the use of functions to me a non professional user. Thank you for your professional yet simple and friendly approach to knowing the aspects of our cameras ... you are great...;-) I just bought a OM5 mk III 12-40PRO f2.8 coming from a Nikon 3200...

The button has always been there! As long as you have not remapped/customized it to some other function.

[@lindastevenson9030]

This is great, Robin! Really helpful and informative. I *always* set the EVF diopter correction. It's critical if you use the EVF for manual focussing. I've used DoF preview a few times. But not any of the other features you mentioned. I may give them a shot now!

@@robinwong I remember having to *buy* dioptric corrections for my Canon AE-1, so having it built in is such a convenience! You should do a followup video to bring some attention to other obscure Olympus settings.

Very useful as usual. Thank you.

[@mariusm2402]

Thanks for the hidden features. I was using Dof preview on my em5 but changed to focus peaking. I had the feeling that it changes the aperture as well because the screen was getting darker. but just checked the em1 and focus peaking does not impact the aperture. 😭

[@7zinz]

thanks for another great video! I actually use the vf on/off button manually all the time. The test photo however was something new, gonna use that. Thanks again!

[@hjsp8]

Hi Robin. I find the dioptre wheel on most models, too stiff to turn accurately. Have you any advice on that please? Howie

[@AnandaSim]

Good one. I can't remember whether I knew about EVF/LCD toggle switch long press feature. I seldom shoot stage events from the audience nowadays. I found out about DOF preview when I first got an f/1.7 lens and was walking with you along Jalan TAR - I kept shooting it and it looked ok on Liveview (f/2.8) but I was getting blurs because the lens was set for f/1.7 On the E-M1 there is an enhancement - I can set DOF Preview to be held on - that's nice

[@friatankar]

How do you make the DOF preview be on all the time? I have em1 mark 2.

[@prodigyxl]

Test shot (useful for flash photography) and Lightbox Preview were completely unknown from me. So a big thanks Robin!

[@johna5624]

Hi Robin. Re the Depth of Field preview button. I've noticed that when this is depressed then the highlight warning becomes more widespread. E.g if I reduce shutter speed (one third increments) till the highlight warning disappears and then depress the DoF preview button then some areas of 'warning' will re-appear. Do you know why the camera does this (my EM-1 mkii and EM1 mki exhibit this)?

[@joeltunnah]

Excellent! You should do a whole video on all the various EVF settings, like “S-OVF”, for example.

[@im2p]

Yes, I agree. I think, I should calibrate my EVF, because there are differences in the brightness of the EVF to the image. But if I tune it, I can see almost no difference in the EVF. Maybe there is a trick?

[@aljonagvozdeva4166]

Thanks for your videos! I love Olympus tips series. I have em-10 III with only two fn buttons available to me( So far I installed on them peaking and af/mf switch. But I really want to have depth of field preview as well. Is there a way to program one more button or maybe is depth of field available on some other button as well?

[@Rafaga777]

Thanks for the tips. I have to admit that from the mentioned tips I only was familiar with the depth of field preview button and the diopter dial. So still much to learn...;-)

[@mooremob100]

Well that was a learning experience, Thank you Robin.

[@autopete1]

A feature not discussed is manual focus magnification using tele lenses, the amount is adjustable, high like 7X is very hard to use for a bird in the sky and changing to 2-3X can only be done when magnification is active. Move the manual focus ring to activate, then move the rear wheel to change it.

[@garryneil753]

I did not know about Light Box or Test shot!

[@robinwong]

Glad that I have shared them here.

[@Dahrenhorst]

I never used the picture compare function. I do all my comparing, if necessary, at my computer. I frequently turn off the display, but only using the display flipping method. Actually, the DoF preview is one of the functions I use frequently on my camera. I didn't know the test shot function, and I haven't missed it at all so far. The diopter adjust function is a bit controversial to me. I do wear glasses, and if I have the diopter setting adjusted to my eyesight, I always need to take my glasses off before I look through the viewfinder. That is very cumbersome, so if I need to look through the EVF, I just do it with the glasses on without prior modifying the diopter. Since that is somewhat awkward to, I normally compose and focus via the display. For me, the EVF is only a backup for special circumstances.

[@jamespayne4759]

One, viewfinder adjustment for my glasses. I will now use some of these. Another great info video !!!! “Thank you”, Jim, Charlotte, NC.

You may perhaps want to upgrade your discussion on the function lever. The OM-D E-M5 III has changed.

Why? The function lever is still a problem and I strongly suggest turning it off. Nothing changed. You can feel free to do whatever you prefer with it though.

[@РоманКор-з9г]

[@Mir1189]

1. Lightbox I have found it, but i prefer simply to zoom in and check single shots. 2. Turning off the screen On M5 Mk III i simply close the LCD. On M10 which has tilting LCD its more useful. I did that once by accident. BTW M5 Mk III got a very useful firmware update. When the LCD is fully opened (eg. on the left from the camera), eye sensor on EVF is disabled. 3. Depth of field preview I am oldschool photographer and my vintage Practica LTL 3 has similar feature. On M10 i even changed WB balance button to have this feature, on M5 Mk III Its perfect for portrait prime lenses with narrow DOF. 4. Test Picture I would not mind keeping the image, mainly if i do reports/party photography. I also keep histogram/EXIF data from the location in this manner, so i can just check the settings and use them in the future. 5. -1 diopter on my left eye, -3 on right :D

[@MrPhotoBlitz]

I have used the diopter correction on the viewfinder. Before autofocus came out on film cameras, as a project we bought a 16 diopter lens and had a camera shop glue it the SLR viewfinder. My vision was that poor before I had artificial lenses inserted.

[@robinwong]

One of the regular complains I get from new camera owners is how blur the EVF looks. I then asked if they have adjusted the diopter, after they did that, 100% problem solved.

[@MrPhotoBlitz]

@@robinwong Your eye is very close to the glass, so there is a lot of refraction required and the correction we add or subtract is small in comparison to the total correction of the lens system.

I know all 5 features. On OMD 10 II button to switch EVF/LCD is on right side of EVF. I shot many time at night, so I find solution to turn off LCD. I enable Lightbox but I use it maybe one or two time. DOF preview? I used MF with focus peaking so I can see DOF and don't need DOF preview. Test picture? If I must first reprogram one button and then shot test picture faster is shot normal picture and saw it with play button, isn't it? I also have a glasses so I must adjust EVF to see sharp pictures.

[@ruuddirks5565]

They are good features. Some are essential (DoF, diopter) in my opinion. Others look only useful in very specific situations.

[@MDMiller60]

None of those tried. Will set all or most of them now. I was impressed with the DOF preview at f16 still showing normal lighting, even though the 2.8 view was lit well also. On my DSLR, it would go very dark (if f16 was the setting).

[@PakPhotog]

I am going to suggest that the Test Picture option is a terrible idea for one main reason. What happens if you take a test shot and for whatever reason the photo is just fantastic and can't be easily recreated (for example, photographing a baby and they make the most perfect face during the test shot or you catch your dog in mid bite as they try to grab a fly out of the air that was passing by or that weird thing happening in the background at the park). Now this perfect shot is just sitting there mocking you on the LCD screen. At best you can whip out your mobile phone and take a photo of the LCD screen. Heck, the shot doesn't even have to be remarkable or perfect. It might simply be "that is actually a good shot of what I wanted. Storage is cheap and most of us usually have 100s if not 1000s of photos worth of space on our SD cards at any given time. If you are really that hard up for storage, then simply take the shot to check your settings and then simply delete it afterwards if it isn't a keeper.

Great video Robin. You help people understand their cameras and how to use what Oly gives them. I would like to add one more function. Focus limiter in m5, m1, m1x. I think this feature is forgotten in a mirrorless world and not used often. No reviewer mention this in any test. This is a huge mistake. This is an extremely helpful feature and it can also increase our efficiency in shooting sport, wildlife and more. Only fuji xpro3 got focus limter. It has been available on Olympus cameras for a long time.

[@robinwong]

Focus limiter is not unpopular, and it is quite a new feature available only from E-M1 Mark II onward. I've mentioned it in my Focusing tips video for OM-D. It isn't fair to place it here, as all above features are applicable to most Olympus cameras, not just the flagship.

Having been using Olympus cameras since the E-P1, I can't imagine someone using a E-M1x having never used an Olympus camera before. The menu only makes sense if you have had a lot of experience with it. There are like 10x more menu options on the big cameras.

[@harttakada5066]

In iAuto can't use back button focusing. Em5 m² focus staking menu is grey out, any chance getting it to work?

[@robinwong]

When the camera is set to iAuto, the camera defaults most of it's settings to be "idiot-proof". I don't think a beginner who starts out on photography and got a new camera, using auto mode would know or want to use back button focus. That is a little unrealistic to expect such implementation. If your focus stacking is greyed out, most likely the lens you used is not supported. Check Olympus website for lenses that are compatible with in camera focus stacking.

[@nitehawk86]

The iAuto setting is entirely superfluous once you figure out how to use the camera. Just go with *Program* if you really want both aperture and shutter speed set automatically. They are the same without the dumbing down of the other camera features. Even then, I almost never use P. A and S are just much more useful modes.
