Can't get my camera to go to BULB? The farthest I can advance it is 60".
you are probably in shutter priority (S), not manual mode (M). I did the same thing.
Clicked on link for Lightroom video book it shows 2 of them. What is the difference between the two?
1. Lightroom 6 CC
2. Lightroom Classic CC

Thanks Tony … years later I still refer back to this video/tutorial. Really appreciate it!
A tremendous tutorial, one of the best I've seen so far. I have just purchased an E-M1 Mark II. I've scoured the net for information, downloaded work sheets and books, struggling to find effective and simple demonstrations and explanations for the camera, without having to muddle through the manual. Wow, you have delivered big time, a basic platform by which to explore and utilise the technical wizardry of this complex camera. Kudos.
As someone who has just taken up photography as a serious hobby, I can't tell you how thankful I am that I chanced upon your tutorial for my EM 1 mk 2
Your relaxed but informative style makes it easy to retain the details and get to grips with a complex menu setup.
I've just bought your book from Amazon & cant wait to get reading.
I've tuned in to other tutorials and find them equally informative. Thank you for what you do.
One hour 40 minutes long? OK, I'm going to watch it all, because it is THAT good. Thanks!
OMG! Keeping up with this overview video tutorial is overwhelming from a beginner's point of view, yet the tutorial is on spot. For all beginners. If you feel the lesson is too fast then slow down the playback speed in the TH-cam menu (3 dots in the upper right corner). Tony covers a lot of helpful information for this camera. Thank you Tony (2 years later)... Actually Thank You! Chelsea and Tony for the TH-cam tutorials.
Bought "Stunning Digital Photography" a year ago and use it continuously. Great educational tool! Great tutorial! Looked at E-M1 MkII tutorial for the third time and learn something new each time. Best explanation of menu system to date. Picked up on your comments about the use of flash that I missed the last time. Looking forward to your next "how to" chapter.

Love the panic in your voice at 1:30:20 when the lens starts to roll across the table.
Thanks for the huge effort in putting this tutorial together.
Thanks for this video. I just bought OMD-E-M1 Mk II and it hasn't even arrived but now I feel like I have a head start on how to navigate the functions. This was super helpful.
Excellent tutorial, Tony, as always! I have been waiting for a tutorial on the EM1 Mark II for a while now. Thank you so very much for making our lives easier! You are a great instructor and I love your work! Merci! Thanks!
Clear, well paced, brilliantly helpful tutorial - thank you. Even having had the camera since it became available you have shown me things I had yet to explore.
Thank you for sharing this with us. Bought the e-m1 II yesterday. Love it.
I know you made this video a while ago, but I just wanted to say thank you. It has been so helpful for me.
I still come back in here from time to time and go over things I might have forgotten. Also bought your book "Stunning Digital Photography" and it is so worth every penny!! Thanks again~ Nancy from Virginia
Thank you so much for this manual video for my new camera. I really appreciate all the work and expertise you have put into every aspect of the camera. You are the best.
Bought the O M 1 mkii enclosed instruction manual waste of time, found this tutorial brilliant, thank you so much Tony Northrop, you should be paid by Olympus for this Video.
Great explanation of video. I've owned this camera for a few years and just went back over the tutorial as im off to Alaska,Bahama's and mexico soon. I actually forgot a few setings and this help me remember them. Thanks
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have rented the Mk II for a couple of weeks to try it out, and this crash-course is just what I needed to get acquainted. And I love the info about using speed boosters and non-Oly lenses to improve lens speed and detail. If I end up buying any of this gear, I'll use your links for sure. Great work!
Thanks Tony for this extensive tutorial on Olympus omd e1 m2, i have learned alot.. thanks for sharing knowledge
Really, really wonderful clip for a (since yesterday) new E-M5ii owner as myself, that’s just a humble enthusiast that really care about build quality in a camera! Thank you soo much!
Longest youtube video I ever watched! Thanks Tony, great information.
The best explanation of this camera I've seen. I've booked marked it so that I can use it as a reference, Thank you
Really good instructive video and I like the fact that Tony tells you what he uses in the various settings. That's a good starting point for someone new to this camera and all its various options.
Dear Tony,
I recently retired as a photojournalist and used Nikon D pro cameras for to many years. And couldn't wait to get rid of that heavy huge gear. Now I have a OMD EM1MK2 and was amazed at the compactness and power of this little guy. Thanks very much for all the help as I couldn't make heads or tales in the hundreds of functions and what not this power house can do. Your long tutorial helped me SO MUCH! as I'm on my way to MT. Bormo volcano in Indonesia on Saturday becasue of you I have not got a great understanding of the features and benifits of all these functions. I will be purchasing your publications from now on. I know it took hours upon hours to make this video you have the patience of a nun. Thanks and double thanks again! If your ever in Malaysia give me a heads up. I'm a friend of Matt Granger. I'm from Seattle and worked for AFP AP etc. Thanks again Tony and Chelsea.
Glad I could help, John! Enjoy your travels!
If you ever miss having a big heavy camera, just put the battery grip on it. :)

This is the best Olympus tutorial that I've seen. Thank you for this. When will you make a tutorial for the Olympus OMD EM 1 Mk 3?
Having recently bought this camera, an immensely useful video. Thank you!
Great tutorial, so I bought the Oly EM1m2.
I have made an excel sheet with all discussed items linked to the time schedule so that I can quickly look up where I can find an item. That works! Thank you very much Tony from the Netherlands.
Comprehensive review of what looks like a great camera. That aside about shutter speeds was very useful. Thanks.
Thanks for this! I am trying out this camera before buying and I was overwhelmed by the camera comigg from a starter DSLR, and you have made things a lot easier
Super useful and well organized. Having just picked up this camera, referring to this video from time to time will be very handy. Thanks!
Thank you for this. I've been waiting for this since March this year. It's a very comprehensive overview. I wished I had seen this tutorial before buying a couple of the lenses.
Even though I only own one camera, I always enjoy watching these vids. Even though all of these tutorials are practically the same for every camera.
This was an excellent video. Great information. I can't believe you offered this for free on TH-cam! I was not in the market for a book, but I'm buying yours to support your channel. Thanks!
Thank you endlessly, I’ve had my E-M1 Mark II for really long without knowing it’s real potential, this really helped!
Thank you. Very helpful as usual. Looking forward to a full review.
Tony, at 6:26 in the video, if you hit the OK button again rather than use the front dial it takes you into the menu where you can use the arrow pad to see a full description of each record option and set the option. Then you you don't have to interpret up/down, optimist/pessimist icons. Great tutorial! Thanks for publishing it.
Wow! Tony! This is an amazing tutorial. Thank you for doing this. I actually purchased the camera and was scared shiteless about really getting into it. Happy new year and all the best to you and Chelsea. jan
Thank you Tony..I constantly come back to this video as the Em1.2 is complicated. Happy New Year to you and Chelsea. Keep up the great videos.
Great video Tony! I need to watch it again, so much information to digest.
Thank you so much for this detailed tutorial!
Fantastic tutorial. I just upgraded from a E-M5 and this was exactly was I needed.
Just got an Olympus om-d e-m1 mk ii thank you for such a Great introduction 😊
Thank you for this awesome tutorial and the other work you do.
Well structured and really informative video. I even learnt a few tips for configuring my camera. Really professional presentation. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, I now understand my camera more than I thought I ever would.......yay!!!! Thank you soooo much Tony, can't wait to get out there now and try all the new things I have learnt :-)
Great, easy to follow along tutorial, Tony. This is still very relevant tutorial as this camera is still a very relevant camera. Thanks for what you do.
Just got mine shipped and was reading the manual, but confused somewhat. This is amazing, I can see myself coming back to it, everytime I'm stuck and a lot easier to find things on the manual too. Cheers
By far the best direction on changing to BBF. Thank you.
I so agree about the power on / off being in the wrong place. I switched mine . Thanks for that. Now to get used to it :) Now I am looking for continous shooting mode holding down the button. You are the best!!! I just bought the OMD em1 mk 11 for myself for Christmas I have Nikon full format and regular. When I was in the camera store I bought a huge lens for the camera and then talked about the mirrorless and ended up giving the lens back and buying that. I got a great deal and a 400.00 rebate used right away. I tried it out on Christmas day. Love it
Thanks for the video, I can't imagine how much work does it take to prepare for a video like this. Keep up the good work :)
you must red my mind. So wanted this video to exist and you did it!
Hope you will have a tut on the live composite too sometime but this is tons of good info. Super thanks!
Using this in 2021. Helped a ton. This has a ton more to it than even my Hasselblad.
Thank you as always Tony. Waiting on an OM-1 tutorial. 😊
Just got the MKii, thanks for taking the time to save me some time on the menus. awesome vid
I love you guys! Thank you so much! I’m a student starting a independent photography business before fall semester. I want to try and sustain my $ through college with photography. These videos help. I really like the funny ones like “7 kinds of photographers” lol
Very detailed tutorial, Like it very much. Every thing what I looking for
This was a fantastic tutorial Tony - Thanks heaps. Bathurst NSW Australia
I wish I could hit thumbs up more. This is a great companion video to the camera. Tony's books are also great. Thanks!
You talk much more positive about MFT, than in the past.
Thanks for the tutorial, Tony. Very informative.
Where I was surprised is that you skipped the Fn2 MultiFunction functionality, and just chose to assign that to a single function. The default MultiFunction setting will let you have several different functions controllable through this single button; while keeping the Fn2 pressed, rotate the thumb dial to select the desired function, then release and click Fn2 again to actually adjust the selected function.
Of course, whether this kind of button is useful at all depends on your style of photograhpy, as it does require serious amount of time and concentration to get from one setting to another.
Sir you are the best you are very easy to follow when i think of something re the topic you mention it ....You never stop learning when it come to photography. ......Thank you >
Correction: 1:30:38 You say Olympus 20mm, but show and link the Panasonic 20mm.
And I agree, it is the best m43 pancake lens. It was the first one I bought for my E-P3 years ago, and I still use it regularly. Though if I want a smaller profile I usually use the E-M10. The E-M1 is just too big to be a tourist camera.
Great overview, here are a few addons :)
2:29 you can disable the manualmode if you don't like/remember it.
6:15 press ok again, to get into the big menue. So you do not have to remember which "file" is which mode.
1:30:03 This lens is the Panasonic Lumix 20mm Pancake - not from Olympus
Tony, you're a champ for making this video🏆
Thanks man. You did a great job teaching.
Excellent tutorial! Thank you!...I will visit your website and look at your books etc...
I love you guys. Keep up the amazing work.
So helpful. Thank you as always.
A great review and instruction video. I loved the tip about setting the screen brightness in bulb mode. I sometimes shoot daytime pics at 3--5 minutes with 10 stop NDs. I hadn't been able to figure that one out yet. You showed me many ways of setting up this camera that I hadn't got to yet.
Glad to help!
this was amazingly helpful. thank you so much.
Hey Tony and Chelsea! Are y'all gonna do a tutorial for the OM-D EM-1 Mk III anytime soon? I just got one, along with the 12-40 f/2.8 PRO lens (amazing!) and I'm really enjoying it, but the menus and settings are a bit overwhelming. I've picked up a few tips from TH-camrs and I can read the manual for about five minutes at a time before my brain starts to hurt.
Help please, if you can!
This helped so much. Thank you. Subscribing now.
Fantastic all round camera
Been waiting for this 👍🏻👍🏻👏👏
Great, in depth, review and tutorial. One tip you missed was being able to re-position the focus point with the LCD, when your eyes are on the EVF. A bit hard to explain, but when you're looking through the EVF, instead of using the arrows to move the focus point, try sliding your thumb around the LCD display, which should be off at this point.
Excellent! Saved me so much time 😊
Hi ! A very full review of (my) Olympus E-M1 MkII... Thanks. I saw all that vIdeo... My favorit shootings are nightscape pictures... In France. Dark skies GREAT here. like so much the Live Composite mode !! Hello from South of France, called Provence... Friendly, best regards.
thank you very much for the instructions, great
Excellent video thank you
Thanks! Such a nice class
Excellent Video!! Well done!!!
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP SIR
Thank you, very good video, extremely helpful
I’m a relative newbie to Micro 4/3. Currently using a very nice OM-D E-M5, but hope to upgrade to good used E-M1 Mk II at some point. Even though it’s “old technology” in mid-2023, seems like it still has some life left in it. Enjoyed the hands on review!
Down to earth, easy to understand, Tony steps around some of the old school DSLR ideas that have no validity on today's mirror-less marvels. Thank you sir, very well done. Does any one know if LR or PS will handle the Mark II's high res shots yet? They didn't several months back.
Very helpful. Thank you.
Tony, thanks for the fantastic tutorial. Looking forward to seeing your review. I'm surprised nobody mentioned the unfortunate text in the background of your selfie pic (at the 23:43 mark). No disrespect, but that gave me a bit of a chuckle. Keep up the great work.
Revisiting the EM1 to see if it can be a lightweight counterpart to the mighty canon. I have used the EM10 for a few years now but only for portrait type work and casual shooting. Interested to see how good the focusing works in conjunction with the frame rate (and EVF). Back to watching (sips coffee).
Tony.... I just finished watching your intro to Olympus omd em1 mk2. I bought the camera yesterday and I must say your video is simply brilliant. It is a fast track to understanding the camera......Your friendly approach is like having a best friend patiently explain the technology to someone that struggles....many thanks.....
Just upgraded from my Mk 1 - helpful guide
Time for an update. Several major firmware and a couple minor firmware updates since this review. The camera is a whole new beast now!
Just got mine last week....blows me away..
@@kennynvake4hve584 got mine a week ago. Totally impressed. I'm sold to the Olympus system
How do I check updates for me camera?
Yes
@@thelonesoldier4518 Connect to the OM software and the a camera update option is at the top menu bar
Thank you for such an informative review. Amazingly detailed!
Thanks for an amazing tutorial Tony. This superb camera is now available for around $600...
I really appreciate your videos, they rock! Are you planning an in-depth review of the Olympus om-d e-m10 mark iii soon? thnaks
Focus Peaking - There is a feature that I belive is not mentioned in the manual, when you are in focus peaking, hit [INFO] and then you instantly can adjust all the peaking settings
Very good tutorial, always like them.
A G85 and GH5 tutorial would be great if you ever have the time. most people seem to only do tutorials for the top models but I believe the G85 is a very big seller so you would get a good audience for tutorial and it would cover most of the GX85 apart from the body layout.
We have both those planned... these videos just take a lot of time and effort. It's really exhausting.
Tony & Chelsea Northrup thx that you are still doing this at this high quality! !
I watched your video will We cards and then decided that's enough. Life is to short and the Olympus is definitely not for me. Holy cow. Bring back film please!!!!!.
pretty interesting keep it up
Would love to see you do a setting set up for the new OMD 1 Mark iii
Thanks for info
Not a comment, but a question. I own the EM-1 Mk2 & the Pro lens lineup (less the 300mm) and really love the system. I noticed in your video that you think a lot of the Metabones attachments w/Sigma lenses. Could you elaborate what setup you might recommend for video capture and why? I have virtually no knowledge of the product(s) and would like to hear about your experiences and conclusions. I am an avid still shooter as well as video especially C4K. Thanks, Tom
