OM-1 or OM-1 mkII?

[djrwhittle]

It’s here! I expected an email from UPS to tell me when it was coming but it arrived unannounced at tea time tonight😀. Sadly I’m out all day tomorrow and held in for a BT engineer on Thursday morning so won’t get a chance to play until Thursday afternoon 😟. I have charged the battery and set the language, time & date ready to go😎.

Check FW is 1.1 for the MK2.

UPS don't give any hints other than by end of day and I really did not want to pre-sign for the parcel so took a chance as I was out volunteering at foodbank but UPS driver appeared about 30 minutes after I got back so I have everuthing unboxed etc. I had neglected to note the absence of a charging cradle when ordering but fortunately have access to a number of USB-C sockets on the PC and on my universal charger so we have done some initial set up stuff including the 1.1 firmware update. Now need to get my head around the menus and all the changes since my E-M1. Any recommendations on tutorials as there are quite a lot from a Google search!

The most comprehensive thing I’ve seen is this guide by Ken Rockwell, it covers pretty much everything

I mostly set up from what I had on the OM-1 but read through this for the new stuff on the MkII. It might help.

Thanks - just found that a few minutes back - so getting a +1 from elsewhere always good.
