Initial Camera Configuration

When you first acquire a new or used E-M5II camera, you will want to configure or at least
check the camera's date and time, along with several other functions that all camera users
should set up according to their needs, especially with a new camera. This section lists the
most important camera settings for immediate configuration.
This section is not comprehensive because there are literally hundreds of settings you
can customize and configure on the E-M5II camera. However, let me suggest some of the
more important settings you may want to consider configuring before shooting for the
first time.
Instead of repeating material found elsewhere in the book, I've listed the menu setting
and the page number where you can find deeper information about that function. Place a
bookmark here until you have examined and configured these basic functions. Afterward,
you can use the camera for active picture-taking while you are studying its many features
in this book.
