Thanks, when I searched for the actual battery code I got more results than my original search for 'battery EM10' so i've ordered a couple.@JackBell I have a couple of ExPro batteries I bought from Amazon and never had a problem, although I suspect the shot count may be slightly down on the original Oly one.
There are loads of EM10 batteries on EBay. If you can't see any check you are going to /www.ebay.co.uk and not .com. search for BLS-5 battery. Theres some sites selling what they claim to be original Oly batteries for £7 - £10, but I would be somewhat suspicious of these, as a genuine Oly battery normally costs aroung £36.
Don't forget to get a usb charger with them, so much better than a mains one.
theres a hidden setting in the menu that says c-af video just re-set my camera so cant find it without a search ,think its with the c-af tracking function thoughJust playing with the Olympus em10ii slow motion video.
I have it on C-AF but it doesn't seem to focus on the Robin moving. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the help. I did have c-af on
If you had face detect on that might interfere with things, as it won't recognize the Robin as having one, as cute as they may be
I'll try that.
On further messing about I thought it might because you can't do much in slow motion

I bought a 60 macro last weekend at Fotofest Central. I was somewhat bemused to get the box home and find no lens hood. I bought it as there was only one available and I heard someone else asking about it. Great deal £35 off RRP and then cash back to reclaim. So, is it just best to pay up and get the olympus hood? I would appreciate your advice.
NO there’s another one it says CAF with a little symbol of a film camera beside it It’s a line of settings along the bottom of the screen it’s the far right one

Agree with Cagey. Oly being to tight when it come to a hood. I don't use one on my macro lens but if I was going to I would buy a 3rd party one with good reviews.
Canon are just as bad. I recall buying an ef-s 17-55 is, probably their most expensive aps-c lens, no hood, same with their ef-s 60mm Macro
For the small cost of a hood why cause this sort of negative comment from their customers
Recently bought two Panasonic m/43 lenses, hood with both of them, Fuji also supply a hood with every lens
Shame on you Olympus
I'd go for the 12-40 f2.8 pro lens with the EM5 MK2 kit.
Hi Guys,
I'm currently a Fuji owner with an X-T2 but am getting increasingly fed up with carting such a big lump around with me - particularly when out walking. Really, what I'd like is a small, lightweight but robust camera with a zoom lens and good image quality. So I'm looking at a few options, one of which is M4/3 and particularly the OM-D E-M10 mk 2 with the kit 14-42 lens. How does this combination stack up? I'm only an enthusiastic amateur so I don't need or want huge amounts of expensive gear - just to be able to do a nice 24 inch print now and then. Any (constructive) comments would be appreciated
Consider the E-M5ii and the 12-50 EZ also but the 14-42EZ is nice for its size.
