How do I insert a memory card into the E-3?
To insert the memory card into the E-3, power off the camera and then do the following:
1. Slide the card cover door lock in the direction shown below.
2. Open the card cover on the right side of the camera.
3. Orient the card as shown below. For CompactFlash™ media, hold the memory
card so that the contact area is on the card's left, pointing into the card slot, and
the CF Mark is in the upper left corner of the card. For xD-Picture Card™ media,
hold the memory card so that the gold contact area is facing the front of the
camera and the notch is facing down.
4. Insert the card into the card slot. Push the card gently straight in until it clicks.
5. Close the card cover door and slide the lock back to its original position.

Can I use my OM Series 35mm SLR lenses on the E-3?
Olympus OM Series lenses can be mounted on Olympus E-System DSLRs with the optional
MF-1 OM Adapter. OM- series lenses are unable to communicate with the firmware in the
E-System camera bodies. Therefore, their use in this fashion has the following restrictions:
•
Autofocus is not available.
•
OM- series autofocus lenses cannot be manually focused.
•
Stop-down metering is used.
•
Spot metering does not work properly.
•
Although it is possible to use the A (Aperture priority AE) shooting mode in auto
exposure, the aperture display is not available.
•
The aperture display in the M (Manual) shooting mode is not available.
•
In P (Program AE) or S (Shutter speed priority AE) shooting mode, the shutter
releases, but the auto exposure control does not work
•
The distance scale on the OM- series lens may not indicate the actual distance.
Always use the viewfinder or Live View for focusing.
When mounted to the E-3 or the EVOLT E-510, OM- series lenses may take advantage of
those cameras' Image Stabilizer function, provided that the firmware in the DSLR bodies
has been updated to the latest release. Click
Because the stabilization benefits are provided by the camera body, the lenses are not
able to use the Image Stabilizer function when mounted to other E-System DSLR bodies.
Because the OM- series lenses were designed for film rather than for use with a digital
sensor, the image quality may not equal that produced by Zuiko
