Are you looking for a cutting-edge Olympus compact system camera, don’t need the weather sealing of the Olympus E-M5 or the higher price tag and bigger size of the Olympus E-M1, yet still want a built-in electronic viewfinder (scratch the E-P5, in that case)? Olympus has you covered with the Olympus E-M10.
At its heart is a 16 megapixel Micro Four Thirds Live MOS sensor paired with Olympus’ TruePic VII image processor, delivering sharp, detailed photos with natural colours and impressive performance across a wide range of shooting conditions. With a sensitivity range up to ISO 25,600, the E-M10 is well equipped for everyday photography, travel, portraits and low-light shooting.
Built-in 3-axis sensor-shift image stabilisation helps reduce camera shake, allowing you to capture sharper handheld images in challenging lighting conditions without always needing a tripod. The high-resolution electronic viewfinder, tilting touchscreen LCD and fast response make composing and reviewing images easy, whether you’re shooting casually or taking more creative control.
The OM-D E-M10 offers a full range of manual controls, customisable buttons, built-in Wi-Fi for wireless image transfer and remote camera control, plus a built-in flash and hot shoe for expanding your lighting options. Its Micro Four Thirds lens mount gives you access to a huge range of compact, high-quality lenses, letting you grow your system as your photography develops.
Lightweight, stylish and packed with enthusiast-level features, the Olympus OM-D E-M10 is an ideal travel companion and a great introduction to interchangeable lens photography for anyone wanting better results without the size and weight of a traditional DSLR.
