DrSteve:That's exactly what it is! Dee checked out her camera and it showed the same thing. I think it must be a camera design feature - just seems weird they do not mention it. The last Oly camera I tried to buy I called Oly and they said it wasn't normal (that was an older D series camedia)
Just to be sure, pop the camera in the housing and take some test pictures - make sure you are happy with it all...I am pretty sure that is just how this camera works...one of several quirks you will find, I am sure!
Have a great time in Coz and please let me know where you stayed and what you thought of it when you return!
