I think I may have found a bug in the latest firmware for the Olympus Pen-F. Basically you can’t record video in the new Art Filter “Bleach Bypass II”. Two conditions have to be met to see this bug.
- You must be using a lens with no electrical contacts such as an adapted lens or one of the body cap lenses from Olympus.
- You set the Image Stabilization Mode to “Off” or “Sensor Shift Only”.
It didn’t seem to matter what mode I was in via the Mode Dial. P,A,S,M all displayed the same behavior.
The camera seems to be fine otherwise, recording and taking pictures with the new Art Filter.
Let me know in the comments below if can duplicate this issue on your Pen-F. If not, it may be something unique to my camera only.
I did a video demonstrating this issue.
Good News: I was not able to duplicate this problem on my Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II.
