1. Install the ExpoDisc over the front of your cameraʼs lens.
2. Allow the camera to set an automatic exposure using the “P”, “S”, or “A”

modes or set the correct manual exposure in “M” mode.

procedure once (steps 3-6). Press the ʻMENUʼ button on the back of the
camera.

4. Push the Down-Arrow to select the wrench I icon (the customize shooting

functions I menu). Then press the Right-Arrow button.

5. Press the Up-Arrow or Down-Arrow button to select ʻFn Functionʼ then press

the Right-Arrow button.

6. Use the Up-Arrow or Down-Arrow button to select the ʻOne Touch WBʼ icon

(

). Press the Center (ʻOKʼ) button. The Fn button is now set for ʻOne

Touch WBʼ; You can now use the Fn button to take white balance readings.
You do not need to repeat steps (3-6) to assign the Fn buttonʼs function
unless you subsequently change it. These instructions were copied from the
E-3 because the manual for the E-5 does not provide easy to locate
instructions for setting the Fn button.

subject and press the shutter release button. The one-touch white balance
screen appears.
