Everyone should have the ability to capture valuable and cherished moments in life, regardless of technical ability. We 
recognise this and with the Olfi one.five, we made it our mission to look after everyone. We carefully thought through the 
default settings to make your life easier - you can simply pop a memory card in your camera and get going! Before you 

start, it’d be a great idea if you read on and familiarise yourself with the cameras features to achieve optimal results. 

The camera is packed with a sweetshop of variable settings, and this user manual will talk you through all of the 
technical options you have available at your disposal, should you wish to fine tune your settings and learn more about 
situation videography and photography to get the best from the camera, in all scenarios.
