Interchangeable lenses

Choose a lens according to the scene and your creative intent. Use 
lenses designed exclusively for the Micro Four Thirds system and 
bearing the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL label or the symbol shown at right. 
With an adapter, you can also use Four Thirds System and OM System 
lenses.
# Cautions
•  When you attach or remove the body cap and lens from the camera, keep th\
e lens mount on the camera pointed downward. This helps prevent dust and other foreign matter from 
getting inside the camera.
•  Do not remove the body cap or attach the lens in dusty places.
•  Do not point the lens attached to the camera toward the sun. This may cause the camera  to malfunction or even ignite due to the magnifying effect of sunlight focusing through the 
lens.
•  Be careful not to lose the body cap and rear cap.
•  Attach the body cap to the camera to prevent dust from getting inside wh\
en no lens is  attached.
