Which version of firmware were you using and did you have the
focus assist light on? For close up work (photographing
documents for example), I have found that the AF light is out of
focus at this distance and totally unusable by the AF sensor.
Frankly, I find that the AF in my E-1 is faster with the light
off.

It's an exposure problem. When you press the Set White Balance
Button, it acutally takes a picture. If the central part of the
picture contains too much out-of-gamut, it will choke. The
acceptable range of exposure possiblity is pretty narrow. A
real pain. Rarely do I use it, as I almost always manually
select my own WB from the presets. (my presets have offsets).
