When carrying the E-M10 around, it garnered a lot of admiring attention – in keeping with the OM-D range, it is beautifully crafted and doesnt go unnoticed. Opting for a magnesium-alloy body, Olympus has managed to retain a sense of quality that one woul...
High quality EVF, Excellent image quality, Compact metal body
Tilting rather than vari, angle screen, Not weather, sealed, No battery, grip
I like the Olympus OM-D E-M10 a lot. It's small and light enough to fit in a large coat pocket or small bag so it can be used as a carry-round camera. It affords lots of control over images, feels good in the hand and has a control layout that's easy to ...
Relatively high priced, Touchscreen not very responsive
The E-M10 is a solid CSC we can easily recommend. With a $799 kit price, it's much more competitive versus other mirrorless models, and its size and light weight make it a good option for those moving up to an interchangeable lens camera from a compact;...
The entry-level mirrorless OM-D E-M10 is another winner in Olympus' OM-D series. Its image quality, speedy performance, and built-in EVF earn it Editors' Choice honors....
Excellent build quality, Clear, sharp, precise EVF, Very speedy autofocus, Design, controls, layout, New 1442 mm pancake lens with motorised zoom is a real hit, Firstrate picture quality, Builtin flash
Threeaxis rather than fiveaxis stabilisation, A little slow to start up with the pancake lens and its electronicpowered zoom, More could be made of the touchscreen controls, Zoom ring is a little restrictive
The Olympus OM-D E-M10 takes the excellent, tried-and-tested tech from its two predecessors and packs it into a stylish and compact mirrorless camera that's cheaper and more accessible. The E-M10 is user-friendly and great-looking camera with excellent pe...

Abstract: Say hello to the Olympus OM-D E-M10, the company's entry-level model into the OM-D compact system camera series. But by "entry-level" we don't mean low-end. When we got to see this camera in action ahead of the official announcement over in Las Vegas it h...
When Olympus told us the price of the E-M10, we were a bit beside ourselves. On paper, $700 isn't a mindblowing deal, but holding the new OM-D in your hands is an entirely different proposition. This model feels every bit as premium as the other two OM-Ds...
Decent price, Wi-Fi and tilting toucscreen, Stunning images
Viewfinder could be comfier, Smaller sensor than rivals
If, like us, you've hankered after the more 'classic' models in Olympus' contemporary OM-D range but baulked at the £1,000+ price tags, then the £699, 16 megapixel OM-D E-M10 and zoom lens combo is the answer to your prayers.Not only does it look and feel...
