Anybody know how to initiate the shutter count info for E-M5.

I've found the following procedure but do not have the camera onhand to verify if it works. Can anyone help ?

1. With a charged battery installed hold down the MENU button while switching on the camera.
2. When the LCD lights release the MENU button and immediately press it again, once.
3. In the menu go to SPANNER (line 5) and press RIGHT.
4. Press DOWN until you are at the LCD brightness screen (line 3).
5. Enter the brightness screen (shows twin adjusters) by pressing RIGHT and then press INFO and OK sequentially.
6. You will see on the LCD 'OLYMPUS' followed by the designation of your camera (eg E-P1).
7. Press in sequence UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, SHUTTER and UP for screen 1.
8. You are now in the hidden information screens: RIGHT = screen 2, DOWN = screen 3, LEFT = screen 4.
9. When you have your information simply switch off the camera.
 

Just collected my silver toy from MSColor...

nice, did they give you the MMF3 adaptor, or must wait for stock to arrive?

I opted (self collect at Olympus SGP) for the 32GB card as I do not have any legacy 4/3 lenses... :)

i see.

by the way, did you do some test shots before you collect the set? some shops say we cannot do test shots due to shutter count.

Yes, tested a few shots. I saw another bro buying also did some testing.

Probably not all shops are as friendly... :)

The silver one looks very nice! The production set seems to be better built than the demo set, too.

I actually opted for the MMF-3 and sold it on BnS. The proceeds from the sale will fund an original spare battery and a few lower capacity cards, which limit the impact of a lost or corrupted card.

thanks, MSCOLOR is a :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: shop.

by the way, did you get the screen protector from them? not sure it fit the same size as OMD-EM5 screen.

Yes, its using the same screen protector size as EP3, so plenty of stock...
 

Silver is in for SLR revo!!

Going to collect later! Yeah
 

Did MSC email you or call you or PM you?? I didn't get any notice :(

I intend to sell off the MMF adaptor perhaps and buy a 64gb SD from US.

Here's a quick shot of the screen protector. It covers the screen perfectly.



Sorry for the super dusty environment.
