- How to customize the function buttons, mode dial, and save settings in Myset1. I walk you through how I set up my camera to improve my photography workflow, make fewer mistakes, and save time. This tutorial is specific to the e-m10 mark ii, but is similar to other Olympus cameras.
All feedback and questions are greatly appreciated! Please share, like, & subscribe.

Best Olympus tutorials on U-TUBE... thanks for all the videos.
Thank you for watching!
I own OMD 10 II for a year and that's crazy, how much I can learn from your videos
Thanks. Glad these help.
Thank you so much for this very instructive video. I've been using the function buttons ineffectively thus far. Now I know how to use the mode dial more instead of just PASM. Rob, please don't worry about your video being too long. I feel it's at the right pace to bring your points across effectively
Thanks!
You are awesome! Thanks Rob for pointing me here in today's live chat. Before now, I never really fully understood how useful this feature is. I just now successfully managed to set my C1 for focus stacking and C2 to pro capture. Such a time saver! Will be using it often here onwards!
Thanks. I use it a lot.
Took a while for me to figure out, but really makes sense when I tried it. Really great video, one of the best instructors on TH-cam! Thanks Rob!!
Thanks!
My brain was hurting trying to get my head around those pesky mysets but this has helped me tremendously. Really appreciate the great effort you put into your videos, thank you
Thank you!
Hello Rob I like your tutorials they are very informative. I've got the manual, but watching you is a lot better.
Thanks for the feedback! -Rob
Thanks Rob. Another video I am re-visiting, to many settings to try and remember now!
Thanks, Deb. Be sure to watch this one too: th-cam.com/video/XrVFYLlCSvM/w-d-xo.html
I’m really impressed by your videotutorials. it is so useful, you talk slowly and explains everything so very nicely. Thank a Lot 👍😊
Thank you!
Really enjoy your videos clear and not rushed. Find setting mysets then assigning a function button challenging on the em5 mark 11 so this helps. Will have to watch again as I want to assign focus stacking to a function button then Birds in Flight etc. Just bought the F2.8 macro lots more to learn, keeps the brain alive.
Thank you! Always new things to learn in photography.
Thanks Rob, a great video. I had only been using the function buttons to save mysets- using the mode dial is giving me much more flexibility. Really like your videos- thanks for making them. Julie
Thanks, Julie!
I'm also an Olympus user, and i find your videos really helpful.
Great vídeo Rob, as usual.
Top Notch!
Thank you for writing! I appreciate the feedback.
Hello Rob...Helpful and Great video as always...! Yes, the Year turned, let's have a good next one.
Happy new year!
Just bought this camera, these videos are great support thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Hi Rob another great video thank you. I look forward to them as they guide, inform and entertain in a way that is for me just great. I have watched every video and some many times to remind me how to. Today we have the family around so will reviewing your Pen f videos. Happy New year to you and yours and thanks again.
Thank you and Happy New Year!
Great! Actually got the same fn1 and fn2 functions - additionally I set a button for lens profile to quickly change lenses or focal length. Thank You for this video - saving the modes and setting them on the dial was something I didnt do before but is definitely a great feature.
I set the lens profile on my penf and em1.2 to fn1 as well. It's the one thing they should put on all the om-d. The em10 and em5 don't have it!
so simple style to figure out. Excellent!
Thanks for watching!
Another great explanation thx Rob
Great vídeo. Thanks for your explanations. Easy way yo see how to do something that I read in the manual, but in a esay way following you. Thanks for tour time & sharing.
Thank you!
Thank you so much, Rob, you saved me so much time on the manual, apart from making giggle with the resolutions ay the end of the video haha 😂
Thanks, Jose.
Nice video. Very helpful - thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
So happy I found your channel! Thank you!
Thanks for finding me!
Excellent...merci beaucoup Rob !
Thank you!
Does “reset” erase Myset banks saved before?
There are two resets "Full" and "Basic". The "Full" reset erases the mysets!
Hi Rob that’s just what I wanted to know to. Loving your live charts too great to have so many like minded people in the forum
Thanks for video! I shoot landscape and underwater/photo/video with my em5ii. Definitely going to start using the myset functions now that I finally understand how to program them. I have been using the function lever to switch between photo and video while diving. Cheers.
Underwater? Cool! I never go in the ocean anymore since my incident with sharks and barracudas. Nothing really happened, but they were there every time I got in to snorkel. One of the barracudas ripped some feeder food out of my hand and there was always a shark swimming 50ft below me in the sand. That was enough for me!
I don't blame you for staying out of the water after that! That's pretty aggressive behavior. You still have all your fingers? Olympus has very affordable housings available for most of their omd and pen cameras. I should say relatively affordable housings. When you look at the price of some housing manufacturers..wow! Oly comes in at around half the price. One thing with Oly is they have great sales so I was able to get into it without too much pain. :) I find I'm either shooting macro with the 60mm or wide angle with the pany 8mm fe. I can set mysets to go with each lens and one for video. Thanks again for making these videos. Cheers
Лучшие уроки по Olympus!
Thank you!
Great idea to use your least used program modes on the mode dial to call up mysets. Can these chanes to the mode dial be reversed to their original function? If so How?
Yes. Just reprogram the mysets to a function button or unassign them completely. If the mysets are not assigned to a function button or mode dial, then you will have to set them via the menu.
@@RobTrek Thank you, I was just making sure we could go back easily. btw Ace channel having moved to micro 4/3 from Canon DSLR for the weight difference. Keep up the work, I'm around 1/4 of the way through the videos so some catching up to do. Thanks again Good Light (not a typo).
Thank you for sharing knowledge
Thanks for watching!
been shooting with oly since 2012, I can't remember how far back i've been using mysets but to this day I still keep accidently setting over previous mysets because of how the menus are.
You're in good company! Happens to me all the time. Thanks for watching.
Unfortunately, does not seem any way to setup, "My Menu" or change "Quick Menu" options ??
Unfortunately, the EM10ii doesn't have My Menu or Quick Menu.
Hi Rob,
Can the highlights/shadows (+/-) be part of my sets and saved?
Yes! I do it all the time.
Great video! Thanks!
Thanks!
Hi Rob, my question is if I set the mode dial to my set. It does override the actual function of that dial right? What if you need to use that actual mode say art mode?
You should still be able to get to the settings through the menu or super control panel under "Picture Mode".
Hi Rob, great videos, i got the EM 10 yesterday and Im trying to work it all out. When you do a reset at the start, does it reset all the myset settings? So each time you start a job/shoot you set all the mysets every time? Or do they stay programmed?
Thanks
Thanks. Yes, the mysets are all reset as well. Best thing to do is program a myset with default settings, then you can virtually reset and program a different myset without resetting the entire camera.
Thanks Rob, good advice, I have done that now.
Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant Rob - Thank-you :-)
Thanks for your feedback!
Rob, just chanced on this video, thanks. But, a trap for the unwary. The "myset" feature appears to have been removed from the Mark III and IV cameras. I have a III and can not for the life of me see this option. Happy to be proved wrong.
Unfortunately it was removed from the Mark III & IV.
@@RobTrek thanks for the confirmation, ill just have to pick up a good used MkII 🙂
Thanks for the video very interesting..
Thanks for your feedback!
Another great video Rob. By the way, what lenses do you use for real estate photography ?
Thanks! I use the Panasonic 7-14mm f/4 for most shots. I'll do some closeups with the Olympus 40-150mm f/4-5.6.
Hi! I want for aperture priority fn1 to be assigned to magnify and then to my set1 assign fn1 to back focus button. Is it possible to save different settings for fn buttons and save them to my sets?
Which model camera do you have? I just have my pen-f on me right now, but I can program myset with back button focus on Fn1 and save it to C1. I then program the Fn1 button to magnify when in Aperture priority. The Fn1 button changes whith the corresponding setting on the mode dial. So the answer is yes on the Pen-F. I'll my other cameras tomorrow and post back here. Thanks for your question!
I just bought the olympus e-m10 mark ii. I want to photograph my kids while playing around with the use of: back button focus (fn1), c-af, aperture priority, low iso (200-1600), matrix metering, central focus point,...
Set all the above to my set1 and assign it to scenes button.
But when i choose A (aperture priority) i would like to have: magnify (fn1), s-af, auto iso, etc.
Any suggestions on settings for kids?
I am totally new here, coming from point and shoot cameras... (and i can say wow... night and day! I regret for that... so many moments in the past... anyway! I now love photography and i will certainly improve my skills.)
Thanks in advance for your quick answers!

Hi, again.
I just found that it can be done when choosing between sets from menu but for some reason when you assign sets to a custom button like art or scn everything changes except the fn buttons... strange.
Do i have to update a firmware maybe?
I'm heading out for my morning walk. I'll take my em10.2 and check these things out for you. As for photographing kids, I think the same settings for birds in flight work except change the shutter speed from 1/2000 to 1/250 and see how that works. If you haven't seen my birds video, it's here th-cam.com/video/E0hBOO3udIA/w-d-xo.html
Hi. It's not the firmware. Since you can assign Mysets to function buttons, you can't assign function buttons to Mysets. I tried different ways this morning to no avail. When the camera has custom modes on the mode dial (C1,C2,C3,C4) like the Pen-F and e-m1, you can set the function buttons to a Myset since you cannot set Mysets to function buttons. At least that seems to be the logic. Hope that helps. -Rob
great video, very informative... are you using your cell phone as a monitor?
Thanks. I was using the cell phone to record the back of the live view screen.
very helpful!
Thank you!
as far as I know there are no Mysets on the 10 MK 3.
I just skimmed the manual, don't see it either! The function buttons are there, but no way to save to mysets! That is a bummer.
