Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV Micro Four Thirds System Camera, 20 MP sensor, 5-axis image stabilizer, selfie LCD screen, electronic viewfinder, 4K video, powerful AF, Wi-Fi, silver

A reliable camera at a good price.

I have one complaint about this camera only: the battery and disc compartment. Removing the disc without breaking my thumb nail is impossible. Surely the manufacturers of Olympus could have thought of a more convenient arrangement.

I was on the lookout for a small, lightweight micro 4/3 camera to replace my aging lumix gx85 which I used as a backup camera and as a smaller body to take anywhere when I don't need or want to carry lots of heavy gear around. The choice was between this and the lumix gx9 and when the Oly came up at a really good price I took the plunge and bought my first Olympus body. For my needs the dumbed down menus are perfect as I used them once to set the camera up how I wanted and will probably never use them again which is great because Olympus' menu system is not know for being easy to learn and navigate. The AP setting on the mode dial is also a great idea as it allows me to use some of Olympus' more advanced features like live composite without having to dive into the menus. I used this for a firework display recently and it made it easy to capture the light trails from the fireworks - see attached photos. The built in image stabilisation also works well and I've been able to take photos in low light without pushing the iso too high. Image quality is also good and seems to be on par with all the other 20Mp m4/3rds cameras including the more expensive high end models. JPEGs are nice straight out of the camera but I tend to shoot raw which allows me to get the best out of the m43 sensor using dxo photolab 4 (tip: deep prime noise processing in that software can hold on to a lot of details while cleaning noise when you do need to use iso settings of 3200 or greater) It is a great little camera body with easy to use menus and controls, very good image quality and lots of advanced features. It's in my camera bag when I travel or go out on a day's shooting as a backup to my main camera and it goes out with me when I don't want to lug a lot of gear around if I'm going to an event or a family gathering or what have you. Paired up with a nice bright prime lens it's great for indoor or low light photography, and with a kit lens or a macro it's perfect to carry with me when out shooting wildlife where it gets used to shoot everything I can't do with the main camera.

I was struggling with my Nikon DSLR - it's an unimpeachably great camera, but it's just a lump to carry around sometimes. Compacts are okay. and phones have their place but picture quality, even from a high end phone, really doesn't stand up to scrutiny once you are beyond a tablet or phone screen. So I was looking for an "in-between" and thought I'd try the OM-D mirrorless four-thirds system. Great choice: the really important bit, the image quality, is outstanding and remarkably close my to that of my Nikon, even on a 43" monitor. Blown up detail is excellent, the exposures are very good in program mode, and there is a stupendous range of potential adjustment and scope for in-camera monkeying about - far more than I will ever need or use. It is very light, perhaps a third of the Nikon, and whilst obviously not of the same build quality, is sturdy enough for sensible use. The compact size - almost too small for my big hands, but not quite - and the weight combined make a huge difference in terms of carryabillty. And a camera you want to carry is a good camera. With the 14-42 lens on board, it will sit comfortably in a coat pocket whilst powered down. The digital viewfinder is acceptably bright, and very good indeed in the right light. The rear screen is also pretty good, and between them they avoid the kind of blind shooting you end up doing with lots of compacts. The complete package strikes a great balance between portability and useability, and has a nice retro feel to the design, reminding me fondly of my first decent camera, an old time Olympus OM10 35mm machine. I got a 40-150mm zoom (roughly 80-300 DSLR equivalent) and the 14-42mm noted above. The bigger zoom is absurdly light, with a reasonable F4-F5.6 minimum, which is competitive for a non-pro lens (expensive faster pro versions are available for a predictably high price). Image quality is very good, zooming is quick and effective, and I can really find little to complain about. The 14-42 is tiny - ridiculously small when powered down, and feels like a compact camera lens in that regard. The zoom action is electronic rather than manual, but is reasonably smooth and easy enough to get used to. Image quality is excellent so far. Again, I can't find anything to mither about. With either lens attached, focusing is prompt and so far reliable, although changing the metering/focus from full area down to partial helped with that. What can I pick holes in? - The controls are quite fiddly and buttons are small (you may need glasses!), but once you get the hang of it there are some simpler ways to get what you want - The AE lock button is poorly placed and really tricky to operate with large hands - the button is too close to the shutter button, too small and recessed, and slopes away, making it quite awkward for index finger and thumb operation. - As noted above, the camera is bordering on being too small overall for fat fingers, but for me just gets away with it. - The construction is mostly plastic, understandably at the price point, and it's not weather proof. That's a compromise for portability, but you would need to bear that in mind. - Powering up is slow, and moving from view mode to shooting mode is a bit plodding too. It doesn't have the instant zip of a DSLR. It's not a camera for a pap or a sports photographer. Overall, I think this is a superlative camera. I am beyond pleasantly surprised by the image quality, I am over the moon with it. It will never feel as a solid and satisfying as the click and clunk of a Nikon DSLR, but the truth is that the OM-D makes it far more likely that I will leave the building with a camera in my hand. That's a total win.

I bought this Olympus OM -DE E-M10 Mark 1V camera to replace my old OM-D. The new camera is amazing! It has more mps that the old one and more control over exposers etc. The video is also more superior to to old one too! A good buy at a good price. thanks JD

I bought the Olympus EM10 mark4 as an upgrade to my EM10 mark 2. The newer mark4 has a 20mpixel sensor replacing the mark 2's 16mpixel. The upgrade gives impressive results, I was not dissapointed. However the mark4's menus and options are now simplified; omitting some useful functions. Customisation of controls has been severely minimised and the saving of mysets (favourite camera settings),completely removed. Deletion preferences /instant/yes or no .. are no longer available. All in all the customisation and other functions were too much to lose so I returned the mark 4 camera and bought the Olympus EM5 mark3; which had all the missing functions plus a 20mpixel sensor, albeit more expensive. The return experience was faultless and a great asset for future purchases.

Arrived 2 days ago, it is easy to operate and comfortable in the hand. Navigating the menu is easy too. I have not yet put it through is paces, but the images I have taken are good. I'm not a beginner nor seasoned photographer, but would be a good camera either level.

I bought the body only to replace an old Panasonic Lumix G6. I was specifically looking for a micro four-thirds so that I could save money on replacing the lens as well. The camera was delivered very quickly and I enjoyed getting used to the features, although I've barely touched the surface of what it's capable of so far. So far I've only used it for a couple of social events (so people photos) and a city break, so not pushed it yet. But it's performed well up to now. Some night photos didn't come out too well but that was most likely due to there being too much movement, so a 'user' error rather than a fault of the camera. The back screen isn't as flexible in its positioning as my previous camera and I am a little concerned that it cannot be turned over to protect it from scratches. But it's still pretty good and it has a nice feature which makes taking selfies a little easier. It took me a few attempts to successfully connect to the App (OI Share). The Wi-Fi seems to be sensitive to VPN software and I had to turn off 'Connect on Demand' in my phone settings. After that it was fine and easy to use. Although I'm not a camera expert by any means, overall I'd say it's a good buy and I'm happy with it.

Gute Anfänger Kamera, mache es gewerblich seit 8 Jahren und bin mit der Olympus OM - D sehr zufrieden, kompatibel mit den nötigen Objektiven, hervorragende Fotos, sehr gute Handhabung !

Nice camera

Un excellent appareil photo. J' ai commencé ma "carrière" de photographe amateur avec l'Olympus MX argentique en 1979 et depuis je n'ai pas changé de marque . Cet appareil cumule toutes les qualités que l'on peut attendre d'un appareil hybride. Je le recommande fortement.

Kupiłem ten produkt na Amazonie i jestem bardzo zadowolony. Kiedyś miałem aparat Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III, który prawie zawsze nosiłem w moim kompaktowym plecaku. Ogólnie byłem z niego zadowolony, ale chciałem mieć sprzęt z matrycą 20 megapikseli lub więcej. I wtedy popełniłem błąd – kupiłem pełną klatkę. Nie minęło dużo czasu, a aparat zaczął kurzyć się na półce ze względu na swoją wagę i gabaryty. Po półtora roku posiadania pełnoklatkowego aparatu (który nawiasem mówiąc zdobył nagrodę TIPA w swojej kategorii), sprzedałem go wraz ze wszystkimi obiektywami i wróciłem do Olympusa. Tym razem wybrałem model OM-D E-M10 Mark IV, który w pełni mi odpowiada – zarówno pod względem gabarytów, wagi, szerokiego wyboru optyki, jak i jakości generowanego obrazu. Uważam, że jednym z najważniejszych kryteriów w fotografii są kolory, a te w aparatach Olympus są po prostu rewelacyjne (nie mylić z nowym OM-System). Gorąco polecam zakup tego body, póki w sprzedaży są jeszcze aparaty wyprodukowane pod marką Olympus.

Olympus OMD 10 markiv. Cercavo da un po’ una compatta buona da portare con noi in ogni occasione per non far scappare i momenti in famiglia. Non sempre avevo voglia di caricare la reflex+ obiettivo così abbiamo deciso di provare questa Olympus che aveva buone recensioni. La usiamo da 3 mesetti e sono molto soddisfatta. Assieme a Zuiko 17mm 1.8 ho una camera perfetta per ogni occasione! Le foto sono di una qualità eccellente! È leggera, impugnatura perfetta (la compatta precedente che avevo non l’aveva) bottoni intuitivi. Adoro poter passare le foto al cellulare senza passare dal pc (quando voglio mandare ai familiari le foto dei bambini velocemente senza bisogno di post-process). Ha uno stile vintage delizioso. L’ho completata con un buon parasole compatibile in metallo (per me è imprescindibile non per il sole ma per proteggere la lente dai colpi) e una borsetta per il trasporto. Sono molto soddisfatto della mia Olympus, ho fatto foto stupende anche negli interni con poca luce (questo grazie anche e soprattutto al zuiko 17mm 1.8) e non sento più il bisogno di correre a prendere la reflex perché la qualità dell’immagine mi soddisfa pienamente. Super soddisfatta !!!!
