How to Use / Care Instructions

To maximise the performance of your OM-5 Mark II, ensure your camera firmware is kept up to date via the OM SYSTEM software. When shooting in remote locations, carry a compatible USB-C power bank to keep your battery topped up throughout the day. Take advantage of the dedicated photography control button next to the shutter to quickly engage computational modes like Live ND or Focus Stacking without diving into the menus. Always store your camera body with a body cap attached when not paired with a lens to prevent dust from reaching the sensor, and transport it in a padded, weather-resistant camera bag.
