About the Lens
You can use the supplied lens or a lens that 
is compatible with the lens mount standard 
for the “Four Thirds System (Four Thirds 
Mount)” with this unit.
Select a lens that matches the scene being 
recorded and your use of the pictures.
If you use a lens other than a dedicated 
interchangeable lens, auto focus cannot be 
activated and accurate metering is not 
possible. Also, some functions will not work.
∫ “Four Thirds Mount”
This is the lens mount standard for the 
“Four Thirds System”.
These are interchangeable lenses newly 
developed specifically for the optical design 
requirements of digital cameras.

Using a lens other than the supplied lens
• Depending on the type of lens, you may 
not be able to use some functions such as 
contrast AF (P58), the direction detection 
function (P35) and OIS mode (P96).
• The available flash range etc. differs 
depending on the aperture value of the 
lens you are using.
• Take some test pictures with the lens you 
are using.
• The camera automatically switches to 
phase difference AF [ ] (P59) if you 
use a lens that does not support contrast 
AF (P58) even if [LIVE VIEW AF] (P107) 
in the [CUSTOM MENU] menu is set to 
[ ] (P58). Check the following for 
compatible lenses.
