OMG thank you! This is my first real camera and I have not been able to figure out how to use it and have been reading the manual obsessively. This video was set up flawlesssly and I love the menu in the description box becuase I will be coming back to this video in the future for sure. You are awesome!!
Thank you SO much for this. I've had this camera for nearly two years and I've learned more in one hour than in the whole time I was trying to get my head around the semi-useless camera manual. Great stuff, thanks.
Thanks for this tutorial guys, I just went out and bought this after saving for half a year. You're the reason I discovered this model and I'm so glad I went for it :)
Absolutely fantastic. Thank you for this content. Your approach and delivery instill a lot of confidence, yet are very approachable. Just got talked into this over a new DSLR from the camera store in town and wasn't immediately feeling good about it. I thought I may have gotten pushed the wrong direction. This changed my mind completely. I'll be picking up the book / videos and working through the content as well. Thanks again and looking forward to learning more!
I am happy that you spent so much time with this camera ! I recently purchased an EM-10 Mark III and I was a little bit confused by some of the settings. It's a great little camera. It is my first micro four thirds and I was pleasantly surprised by the resulting images.
Excellent tutorial for my new E-M10. I have a Mark II, but almost all seems to apply. Have relied on your videos since you first guided me through my D5300 plus lens & accessories recommendations. Northrup remains my go-to source for all things photographic. And yes, I bought the book.
OMG! What an awesome instructional video! I understand so much more about my OMD EM10 now. Believe or not, I have had my camera for 2 years and did not know it could do all the things you have shown. I may never go back to automatic mode again :) Thank you so much!
You blew me out of the water with this tutorial. Thank you so much. Switched from a Nikon D3100 to this camera & reading the manual is no comparison to your tutorial.
This was one of the most helpful videos on understanding my camera that I have ever seen. Thank you so much. I am definitely purchasing your book. I can't wait to get started. :)
This is by far the most helpful tutorial I've seen. This video has helped me immensely. It's more helpful than the actual manual. I'll be purchasing your book as well. Thank you!
Agreed! I was so lost with this camera until I stumbled upon this tutorial last week. Immediately went out and bought the book, too! Thank you, Tony and Chelsea!
Very well done. I have both the E-M10 (as a back-up) and the E-M1 and all the advice is spot on. I noted the omission of the Super Control Panel. It's a quicker way to get to many of the shooting options. Keep up the excellent videos and thanks again.
Fantastic tutorial. Thanks Tony I love this camera, excellent value and fun to explore. Olympus prime lens 45 mm f 1.8 is my current favourite to use with this camera. Loving your book as well. Thanks again.
Thanks for this great tutorial ! As it sounds, the "multifunction" Fn option does not enable only the highlights/shadows settings, but it actually enables you to assign several functions to a single button. To do that, just keep the the Fn pushed and spin the back wheel to display the several options ;) This is the case on the Mark II, but it guess it is the same here
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Just picked up a used Em10 with 14-42 ez kit lens and the 40-150 telephoto for $300 in mint condition. This is my first mirrorless/ micro 4/3 and so far I'm impressed! Can't wait to get some good glass and really see what this camera can do.
An update for the E-M10ii and/or E-M10iii would be greatly appreciated. Also, adding the optional grip available from Olympus really helps in improving the handling of these cameras when using heavier lenses such as the 12-40 Pro and 75-300 zoom. I keep the grip on my M10 all the time and have ordered one to go with the M10ii that I just ordered!
I have the mark ii and is my first camera. Although i have become cross eyed trying to soak all this in, it is by far the most informative video. thank you
fantastic video for someone like me who just brought this camera and hates reading manuals (I just can't get my head around them). being able to follow you and try everything along with you makes it so much easier to understand and implant it in my memory. I have downloaded your video and put it on my iPad so I can watch it over again when I need it as I take my camera out and start using and learning what it can do.
Thanks a lot for the video, subscribed! Super helpful and well thought-out, just picked up an em10 and the 20mm Lumix lens as my grabngo/travel camera and I have to say I actually like it better than my big DSLR. Feels solid, beautiful image quality, all the controls you would want in places that make sense...camera is a total winner.
Fantastically helpful and detailed video. Even though I had familiarized myself with most of my EM-10's functionality, I still learned quite a bit from the video. I also really appreciate the presentation style - it is very approachable, friendly and informative. I will look into the buying the SDP book to help me use my EM-10 more effectively, now that I know how the nuts-and-bolts work! Thanks.
Super Job Tony! Got your book SDP after buying the M10, have watched this 3x so I now know my way quickly around this camera. TY PS of the youtuber's out there i love you and Chelsea's easy going non-elitist you can do style. Happy Holidays!
This was great! Not everything applies to my camera (an OM-D E-M10 MkIII) but most of it does, and where there are minor differences in menus it wasn't hard to figure out. Thanks so much for making this!
Tony I've watched this tutorial a couple of times and found it really useful so thanks for that... I have to say though that I was taking a snack eating porridge when you explained how to silence the 'Beep' It was a hilarious moment causing a minor eating malfunction... Great work you do really seem to enjoy your work!
Excellent tutorial. Just bought an EM10 for my little army of manual lenses...I think I have about 20 of them last count. From Canon to Nikon to Helios to Jupiter to Konica to Pentax Takumar. With the Focal Reducer + fast 1.4's + in-body image stabilization...can't wait for the low light challenge.
Thanks for the video. I just upgraded from my D5100 and I do HD Video commercial shooting with DSLR, namely in the last two years with the D5100. It way paid for itself but it lacked some control, which I worked around to get some pretty good stuff and got paid for it. Now with your video, I understand the settings of the new cam and reinforced my purchase decision. Too bad you don't have some tips on how the use the video side but I am sure I will figure it out. Again, thanks for your video and I will be purchasing your book. I just started shooting stills for clients in the last three years, thus expanding my skill set, along with my video production and learning from you and your crew is awesome. Thanks gang!
An excellent tutorial. Thank you. I watched it in two sittings fumbling with my camera, but was able to follow along despite my butter fingers. The one thing I wish had been covered was panoramic shots. I can't seem to get them right and its probably a whole lot easier than I have made it.
Great video! I am just getting into digital photography and bought this camera along with the 45mm f/1.8 lens. Happy to hear you rave about it. Perhaps I will need that 75mm. All in good time! Thanks for taking the time. I learned a bunch.
Thank you so much for posting this video. Your reviews of the OM-D E-M10, and the price drop helped me decide between this and the A6000, went to see Chris at Milford Photo (who is awesome by the way) and he referred me right back here for help learning the camera. Went to your website and ordered your book. Thanks again, extremely helpful!
Great video- got this camera for my birthday and this tutorial has been so helpful in explaining the different features! It's also nice with the table of contents that I can always come back to this if I need a refresher on any of its features. Thanks for your help!
+Tony Northrup This was a very helpful video as I recently bought an E M10 and also just started into "Stunning Digital Photography" last night and am enjoying it. Thanks
This was great! I have sat through three classes and still didn't get it. You did a great job making it simple enough to follow.Thank you. Now on to get your book!
Well well, although this video was from 3 years ago and i just got my Mark 3 today and still find the info here very useful! It's very much like my first camera anyway. The dials and function might just changes a bit but to a newbie like me they all seems still the same. Only finds that this camera were quite easy to use for a beginner like me.
Hello Tony and Chelsea. I brought the em10 after your review. I've been using it and loving it. I want to do some time lapses but this options is not selectable (if that's a word). So looking forward to watch this video in hope it explains how. Thank you for all your excellent helpful videos.
What a great video, you are very easy to watch. I've just bought the mk II and wanted to get more familiar with it as I've come from a Canon. I'm going to order your book too :)
Great video, I bought a E-M10 last month and I'm enjoying taking pics with it. Here in the UK its a great time to buy a E-M10 as Olympus have a £75 cashback promotion going on.
Spot metering and Auto Exposure Lock (AEL) work hand in hand. Point the spot at the brightest thing in the frame then hit AEL. Re-frame, focus and hit the shutter.
thanks for the information, enjoying the mk II. Sure, I would probably have got quicker focus on a DSLR, but the controls feel great and it's small enough to take almost anywhere.
Quick comment about the BULB mode. There are two settings for BULB mode, one is Live BULB which is explained in this tutorial, but there is also Live TIME. To get to Live TIME scroll left one more time on the shutter dial. Live Time allows you to press once to open the shutter and press again when you want to close it. This means you don't need to hold your finger on the shutter. Also means that if you're cheap like me, you don't need to buy a remote shutter release.
Tony, I have the e-pl5. I love it, i don't think it is worth the upgrade yet. But I am going to wait for olympus to release a newer em10. Hopefuly they will update the sensor and processor. Cheers! Awesome tutorial.
This guy is cool... I think he tries his best to make things as simple as possible. God Job. I bought two of his tutorials from Amazon. it's well worth it for the price. One other thing, at least he speaks English...
Thank you for the video Tony I learned a lot from you. two questions, on video mode, the focus peaking doesn't work for me also, the in video mode the touch screen focusing. If yo can help me on that please.
thank you for all your Tutorials and Videos, i have a question on the E-M10. unlike my A6000 when i shoot in low light the EM10's screen and nice and bright and does not reflect the image brightness and unless you take the picture you can not tell if you need to adjust your settings. is there any thing that i can change in the setting so what i see on the screen is what i get?

This video was just what I needed to set up my new OM-D E-M10. You're a great teacher, Tony! Thank you sooo much!!!

Thank you. I just bought this camera, and this has helped a ton in getting familiar with the camera.
OMG! What an awesome instructional video! I understand so much more about my OMD EM10 now. Believe or not, I have had my camera for 2 years and did not know it could do all the things you have shown. I may never go back to automatic mode again :)
Thank you so much!
Helped me get familiar with the camera faster than any manual with lots of practical advice. Excellent video!
You blew me out of the water with this tutorial. Thank you so much. Switched from a Nikon D3100 to this camera & reading the manual is no comparison to your tutorial.
This was one of the most helpful videos on understanding my camera that I have ever seen. Thank you so much. I am definitely purchasing your book. I can't wait to get started. :)
+Anthony Chappell Thanks! Enjoy the book and your new camera!

+jujuanb Glad to help, and thanks!
Agreed! I was so lost with this camera until I stumbled upon this tutorial last week. Immediately went out and bought the book, too! Thank you, Tony and Chelsea!
I just got my Olympus om-d e-m10 mark ii and this simple and sharp guide is super handy. Great job! Thanks very much!
Cheers

Very well done. I have both the E-M10 (as a back-up) and the E-M1 and all the advice is spot on. I noted the omission of the Super Control Panel. It's a quicker way to get to many of the shooting options. Keep up the excellent videos and thanks again.
Awesome to see this video posted up. I had just been using videos for other cameras like EM-5 that are similar.
Fantastic tutorial. Thanks Tony I love this camera, excellent value and fun to explore. Olympus prime lens 45 mm f 1.8 is my current favourite to use with this camera. Loving your book as well. Thanks again.
Thanks for this great tutorial !
As it sounds, the "multifunction" Fn option does not enable only the highlights/shadows settings, but it actually enables you to assign several functions to a single button. To do that, just keep the the Fn pushed and spin the back wheel to display the several options ;) This is the case on the Mark II, but it guess it is the same here
Wow that was a great video. I’ve just bought the mark 3 and have also purchased two of your books. Looking forward to becoming part of your community!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Just picked up a used Em10 with 14-42 ez kit lens and the 40-150 telephoto for $300 in mint condition. This is my first mirrorless/ micro 4/3 and so far I'm impressed! Can't wait to get some good glass and really see what this camera can do.
This was enormously helpful, I have the em5 and the menu is virtually the same and this just helped me sort through learning the camera basics
I really appreciate the work you have put into this, excited to get this camera and start shooting!
An update for the E-M10ii and/or E-M10iii would be greatly appreciated. Also, adding the optional grip available from Olympus really helps in improving the handling of these cameras when using heavier lenses such as the 12-40 Pro and 75-300 zoom.

Hi Tony.... those were tons of info... thank you... one of the reason why I bought this versatile inexpensive camera!!!!

Thanks for being great.
It's truly is heartening to see Nikon (Zf) starting to catch up after almost 10 years...
thank you very much for this tutorial, i have a question tho. my olympus swicthes off it self in about 3-5s would you be able to help ?
