AA batteries with the E-PL6

Now I see why your cameras got so wet- all that time spent in Ireland and the UK! I dont believe I saw the sun even once when I was there.

Can't remember much rain at all in Ireland /UK, certainly didn't obstruct us at all. Wasn't too bad a summer visit in 2015. Nicer summer was exactly 50 years before when I was in London for computer training in 1965. That was a good one.

The bad day was windy and rainy on a vintage sailing ship in sunny Sydney Harbour.

They dont have a bracketing option for scene modes, I suspect this is because some of them actually require different exposure settings (aperture/shutter speeds) to be used.

Of course, that would be totally crazy.

Anyway, I take normal photos, as realistic as possible or slightly enhanced at times. The arty bits and sceney bits just don't work for me at all, they have been replaced by a range of useful MySets in my case.

I suspect that kit lens is very leaky and those who use it on the weather resistant EM-5 or EM-1 are actually defeating the purpose of the seals- weather resistant lenses must be used on those cameras.

Leaks at mount, at the zoom and focus rings and the sliding barrels. A sieve is better protection.

But normal care and protection, or a carefully arranged plastic bag is 100% better.

That should be an option I set up, I have it currently set to 1 sec review. Is there anyway to set the auto review to automatically go to magnified view? Do you have yours set up that way or to highlights/shadows?

No auto magnify  (there is a dedicated Magnify button on E-PL5/6, E-P5 to use when needed), but I do take notice of the blinkies both in live view and on review.
