Hello all,
I have been given the use of an Olympus E-10 plus lenses. I am quite excited as the lenses will be great to work with. But there is no instruction book. I actually do not know if it works yet.
Perhaps you could let me know if you have one?
Thanks,
Wendy

Here you go. I prefer PDF manuals to paper. It's easy to search for a topic by doing a search on your computer.

Nice camera - you should really enjoy it. It is a quality camera that in its day, was considered top of the line. Compared to todays cameras it is really basic but it has all the needed options.
The optics are phenomenal - :thumbup:
You should be pleased with the results...
I've attached some photos I shot in New York City with mine.
I am guessing the additional lenses you have are the wide angle (WCON 08B) and the telephoto (TCON 14B) add-ons. They're fun to experiment with...
One of the functions I like is the "Time Lapse" option - it gave me the ability to set the camera up on my back porch, direct feed into my computer and see what wildlife was in my yard during the day...
Enjoy ;)
Goodness I will certainly have to read the instructions to find the part about the wildlife in my back yard, I would love to do that!
Thanks,
Wendy

Are you talking about the roughly decade old E-10 4Mp that was considered superb in it's day, or the new EM10.
I am confused by your reference to lenses. I think the E-10 digital was fixed lens with two adaptor lenses. Again a great camera for it's color and IQ. It was also a small sensor camera that preceded 4/3 sensor, which came out with the E=1 DSLR in 2003.
The references for the lapse photography are also for the early camera.
roughly decade old E-10 4Mp
Yes this is the one, all I have done so far is to put in batteries to be sure it works. It is a heavy camera or I am not used to the size. The problem I am finding is a card reader. My old Olympus 2100 UZI that I still use for infra red also has the large cards. No stores locally carry a reader, so it wall be an amazon search I am sure.
Thanks again,
Wendy
As the owner of the new olympus OMD E-M10. I was thinking this is anything but Quality camera in its day... I was thinking my word are things changing that fast... Or did I fall through a time warp. LOL

Nah - we just refer to it as a previous life... ;)
The E10 came out in 2000.
If you're interested, here is the review written by Phil Askey (DPReview):
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/olympuse10/And the capabilities back then compared to now - WOW - different worlds -
Wikipedia has an article on the E10 that lists the tech specs that show how few options cameras had back then...
And I remember thinking this is great...
Which brings to question - what will cameras look like in 2020 ???
Have you tried a web search or Googled it?

Wendy,
For one of the most comprehensive write ups and settings of the Olympus E-10, and ensuing E-20, Andrejz Wrotniak is one of the very best "GoTo" guys for Olympus, even today.
However, he ran the camera you are using through the literal review wringer in it's day.....
This is the reason I asked if you were talking about THE notable early E-10. I think this camera is well on it's way to becoming an Olympus "cult" category camera, much like the revered E-1 with it's famed Kodak Sensor. You may want to get hold of one of those, while they are still plentiful and inexpensive. I bought an E-1 a couple of months ago, with a shutter count under 300 and the very sharp 14-54 f2.8 lens it was originally sold with, for $250.
The E-1 is 5.1 Megapixels, but the Kodak sensor draws colors that will knock your eyes out.
Here is the short list to his articles on the E-10/E-20. Even today, you want to have Andrejz web site on your favorites list regarding anything Olympus 4/3 and m4/3. He's a working photographer who disappears from time to time on his work junkets, but always seems to pop back up to show us how to get the most out of our Olympus camera's.
He's keen on posting "custom settings" profiles as well.
See Here
http://wrotniak.net/photo/e10/index.htmlHe also has an article on a lens adaptor that is 600mm f2.8 called the "Big Mama" specifically for the E-10.
