Sorry for OT: is there any way to lock up the AF point? I mean that it doesn't move when I push one button of the 4 ways control...
Sort of, you can reassign the 4-way controls so the right and down access different controls, then the left becomes the AF-point selection access and you need to press it before using the 4-way to select the AF point. Even then it seems to drift though, the AF point has a mind of its own on the OM-D.
From mawz: "Even then it seems to drift though, the AF point has a mind of its own on the OM-D."
To mawz: This sounds ominous - I own two OM-D EM-5's and have never had the AF point change except when I wanted it to do so. Sounds likely that your's may have a unique problem.
To ultrapix: You can also set a button to quickly return the AF point to "home" position - I find this very useful. My G3 drove me nuts because it did not have this feature.
dukenukem, Excellent video thank you for sharing it. And what a great photograph as the end product. Are you not concerned about introducing camera movement by touching the shutter button to end your bulb exposure? Or did I miss something in the video?

Thanks
The small movement is negligible in long exposure. Normally i use external tigger

I have this problem occasionally (af point changing). Not too sure why it happens; I do have touch enabled though I never use it and i wonder if sometimes when I bring the camera up to my eye if there is a brief period where the face/nose/whatever can trigger a change in af location before the screen switches to the evf. Anyways that is just speculation; it doesn't happen to long and I haven't been taken a lot of pictures recently so should probably experiment one of these days to figure out why it happens.
