The most probable problem you're experiencing is a lens gear issue, but it could be as simple as dirt, dust, lint, or sand inside the lens assembly. You can try to spray some compressed air into the lens assembly in hope of freeing it, or you can gently bump the side of the camera. Aside from that, make sure the battery contacts inside the camera are clean. The following web blog talks about lens issues for mainly digital cameras, but most of the suggestions will apply to your SLR:

If nothing helps, run it by a local camera repair shop and get an estimate, or contact Olympus Support:

Good luck, and hope this helps.

go buy a new battery pack we will not do it for you

It is an expensive Unit. Remove if you can but keep them safe in case you want to sell. https://microscopecentral.com/products/olympus-bx50-fluorescence-microscope ..

Yes, it almost certainly can be repaired, this is a common fault with the OM-2SP, but is not that difficult to fix.

I had a similar issue with an Olympus OM4. It went in for repair but was never resolved. The batteries in my OM1-md last forever! I ended up doing the same remove the batteries after use. I can't remember the configuration, but if the LR44 are two and double stacked, you could use the Lithium equivalent. https://www.batteryequivalents.com/ag13-sg13-lr1154-sr44-303-357-a76-lr44-battery-equivalents.html ..

Purchase a new one. They are inexpensive and liquid damage is sometimes not repairable.

"Another way I found was when this happens, to push the battery to the point the light will turn on, when it starts flashing slide it off then back on. Do this a few times so it charges a little, then you should be fine to leave it on."

I tried to do this with my LI-10C Olympus charger and it worked..The blinking red light turns to solid red..Thanks for the info...Now I won't be bothering to buy a new batt.or have my charger checked..

Yes, the CB-USB4 cable that comes packaged with the camera; is required for downloading images using the camera. The stock number for a replacement cable is 200 776.

Hello your foot pedal don't need drivers but you need for sure a transcription software, the pedal will required a program to work together to control your audio files for example you can get a Olympus transcription software that will be compatible with your pedal, at http://www.tvps.com/Products/Olympus-AS-5002-DSS-Player-Pro-Version-5-Transcription-Software---New__OL-AS-5002.aspx or you also can used http://www.tvps.com/Products/Olympus-AS-7002-Pro-ODMS-R6-Transcription-Software---New__OL-AS-7002.aspx

Olympus has not supported that printer on the Mac in 10+ years. Also checking the Apple printer driver support page I do not see ANY Olympus printers currently supported by Apple: OS Printer and scanner software available for download I would suggest replacing that printer with a current model photo printer (also Dye-Sub) from Canon. The Canon Selphy Dye-Sub photo printers produce flawless professional glossy prints: Compact Photo Printers

Have you tried using Google to find out what the error code actually means ? Very often, the first step in defining and correcting an error is to find out what has caused it.

To reset the settings back to English:

1. Set the DM-20 to Voice mode using the blue switch on the back voice recorder.
2. Remove the DM-20 from Hold using the gray switch on the back of the voice recorder.
3. Press and hold the DISPLAY/MENU button on the front of the DM-20 for at least 3 seconds. The menu list is displayed.
4. Click the REWIND button six times to highlight the Format menu item.
5. Click the PLAY button to select the Format menu item. A message will be displayed with Cancel and Start options.
6. Click the REWIND button once to highlight Start.
7. Click the PLAY to select Start. A message stating that the data will be cleared will display briefly. Then a message asking if you are sure will be displayed.
8. Click the REWIND button once to highlight the Start menu item to continue with the format.
9. Click the PLAY select the Start menu item and begin the format. The format progress bar will appear. When it is complete the menu items will be in the English language.

I would recommend Sony for a best film or picture.
