Attaching a lens to the camera

En
Select the lens that you want to shoot with.
Use a specified Four Thirds lens. When a non-specified lens is used, AF (auto focus)
and light metering will not function correctly. In some cases, other functions may not
work either.
Note
● When you attach or remove the body cap and lens from the camera, keep the lens mount
on the camera pointed downward. This helps prevent dust and other foreign matter from
getting inside the camera.
● Do not point the lens attached to the camera toward the sun. This may cause the camera to
malfunction or even ignite due to the magnifying effect of sunlight focusing through the lens.
● Do not remove the body cap or attach the lens in dusty places.
● Be careful not to lose the body cap and lens cap.
● Attach the body cap to the camera to prevent dust from getting inside when no lens is
attached.
