The E-P5's shutter can sync with the built-in flash at shutter speeds up to 1/320s. 9 fps high-speed sequential shooting can be achieved with the Tracking AF (C-AF+Tr), which works in tandem with the Autofocus to follow your subject. The F.A.S.T (Frequency Acceleration Sensor Technology) AF System is able to focus at an fast speed with 35 separate focus areas. The PEN E-P5 is equipped with 5-Axis image stabilization system with IS-Auto which compensates for vertical, horizontal, and rotational camera shake.

Geotags can be easily added to your photos by simply sending the high-precision GPS log data recorded by OI.Share to your camera. You can create a combination of photos by selecting one of four themes and each theme create photo story with just a single touch. Interval shooting allows 1-99 shots, from 1 second to 24 hour time interval to easily shoot a series of pictures. The E-P5 also has a valuable feature that easily converts a series of pictures taken using interval shooting into a time-lapse movie (Max 10 seconds movie at 99 shots). Twelve in-camera Art Filters are enhanced by new filter variations, art effects and bracketing. Photographers can use Art Filters in all shooting modes as well as when shooting HD movies. The Twelve in-camera Art Filters (Pop Art, Soft Focus, Pale and Light Color, Light Tone, Grainy Film, Pin Hole, Diorama, Gentle Sepia, Cross Process, Key Line, Dramatic Tone and NEW Watercolor) are enhanced by new filter variations, art effects and bracketing. Also, the E-P5 now features the Monochrome Art Filter Effect, where the Picture Tone effect can change the color from normal monotone to sepia, blue, purple, and green.Super Spot AF helps you to accurately bring even extremely small subjects into focus, allowing you to select an area even smaller than the AF point. With Small AF Target, you can set your focus even more precisely by reducing the size of the Spot AF target. The E-P5 also features Focus Peaking, which brings shots into focus manually such as when taking photos using OM or Four Thirds glass.
