The live view mechanism
During live view, the image on the LCD monitor is the same image received by the image 
pickup device (Live MOS sensor/imager) that is used for shooting. This way you can check 
the effects of exposure compensation or white balance on the LCD monitor. Moreover, you 
can also enlarge part of the subject to focus on it or display ruled lines to check that the 
composition is level.
While the image appears on the LCD monitor during live view, the mirror is raised and the 
shutter is open. Therefore, you will not be able to check the subject in the viewfinder.
Correct metering may not be possible if strong light is coming in through the viewfinder. In 
such case attach the eyepiece cover. 
g“Eyepiece cover” (P. 61)
In live view you can choose one of 3 available AF systems. The [LIVE VIEW AF MODE] 
setting will determine when and how focusing is performed.
Characteristics of the live view AF mode
* For the latest information about Olympus lenses compatible with Imager AF, visit the Olympus website. 
When you are using a lens that is not compatible with [IMAGER AF][HYBRID AF] will be selected 
automatically.
