It just leaps to 10X. It would be better if the magnification were controllable for hand held photos. 10X is tough with a longish lens. That why I've also chosen to use the 2X converter function. But focus peaking can be used at any time... normal, 2X or more.

With respect to 'If anyone knows how to turn on magnification or focus
peaking with an MF lens I'd like to hear about it.' : The EM-5 has a
magnify command (which can be programmed to one of the buttons) which will
magnify the view when using MF lenses. Different from the AF+MF setting
when you touch the focus ring of an AF lens. I assume your EM-1 offers the
same magnify command. The EM-5 doesn't have focus peaking, so the magnify
command is the only way to go for MF with legacy lenses.


Does the magnify command reach the full 14X that can be reached on the
LCD?  Does it go through stages, such as 2X, 5X, 10X, 14X, or just leap to
highest magnification?
