Anti-Shock

In Custom Menus set 0 second anti-shock....

Then choose a shooting mode that includes the diamond to make it active in the range up to and including 1/320 sec ......

Note that burst modes are greyed out, need to run along further to burst modes that have no diamond.

Focus.

The green box only appears while AF is happening, as soon as the lens settles at focus it disappears.

There are two focus schemes, one initiated by the shutter button with that disappearing green box.

The second scheme designed for the touch LCD operation, also initiated by Magnify function. That green box can be set from large down to a small 14x box and stays on the screen, in touch AF mode it can be slid around to most anywhere, in touch shoot mode you just touch on the subject to shoot. Good for tripods or when the camera just sits on a table.

A good settings page is at http://www.biofos.com/mft/omd_em1_settings.html
