I like to use the Landscape and Portrait/Landscape setting in the SCN Mode, but when select this mode I do not get the pop up which list all the choices,
Can any UHH members familiar with Olympus M43 cameras help me with this problem.

Does this help - pressing the OK Button?

"To reach Live SCP in SCN Mode,
Switch to SCN using the Mode Dial (of course).
You will be displaying the SCN Menu or you can press the Ok button at the back of the camera to display the SCN Menu.
Press the INFO button when you are looking at the SCN Menu and the screen will toggle to the Super Control Panel (SCP)."

Thanks for your quick response Jerry, I was out yesterday with my EM10 taking an identical photograph using all the modes on PASM dial to compare the differences.
When I got round to the SCN setting none of the options came up, I wanted to use "Landscape", it so happens that it was already in that setting, but I didn't know at the time.
I have used this camera for years now, but I have never got used to some of its oddball behaviour.

Scene mode in Olympus cameras is so simple to use. Sunset is my favorite and I use it a lot. At times the colors are too vivid and saturated in that mode but I can handle them to my taste in post.
Remember that Scene Mode is an auto setting. The firmware of the camera makes the necessary changes to the camera for that particular setting so there is very little or no control on the part of the operator. I have not found that to be an issue with my cameras.
I seldom or never use the other scenes modes.
