Olympus OM-1 - The Super Control Panel
In this video, we will look at the super control panel (SCP) on the OM-1. Most OM-1 users, if not all, would already know this one.
The SCP can be activated by pressing the OK button and the screen is touch-enabled.
This is the heart of quick change for the most common settings. Unlike the menus, the SCP screen is touch-enabled and you can just tap an option to select it.
The SCP, like the menus, is inconsistent at times. Sometimes it will take you to the menu options and allow changes on screen without getting to the menus. There is no option to go back after selecting any option. A simple way to back out of the selections is to half-press the shutter release.
The panel changes when you select the video mode.
The Shooting Mode is for reference only and you cannot change the mode from here.
