Hello
I've got an E-P1 and use it with my Voigtländer 28/2. But I havn't figured out how to activate the MF-assist (magnified square in the middle of the screen) On M-Zuiko-lenses it activates automaticly when you focus manually but since there's no electronics in this lens it doesn't sense it.
I've checked the manual and the extended meny in the camera but somehow I've missed how to activate it manually.
 
You press the Info button until you see the green square, pressing the OK button magnifies the view. The green square shows the area that it zooms to.

Pressing OK again reverts to normal frame view.

If you take a picture in magnified view the camera stays in magnified view when the pre-view period has elapsed.

By using the 4 'joggle keys' (up, down, left and right) you can move the green square around before you press OK, these also work after your in the magnified view.

EDIT: Magnified view doesn't work in any Auto Mode only in Manual, Shutter Priority and Aperture priority

Hope this helps.

Chris
