Camera Review
Olympus OMD EM10 Mark II
Fairly lowresolution sensor for the price
ISO performance trails competition
Lacks log mode for video
Cumbersome menu
Menu is very extensive and therefore also complicated
Screen does not rotate
Not inexpensive
Resolution at the lower end of its peer group. But still good
Continuous AF becomes less confident with fast subjects
Timelapse and miniature movies encoded at low frame rate
No input for external microphone
Menu system confusing at times
Continue
I
Acquired taste EVF
Shorter battery life
Accurate tracking requires slower burst rate
Wacky power switch
No mic input
The grip could be bigger and its continuous shooting can't keep up with the competition. Plus
You really need to read the manual unless you're running on full auto
Kit lens may not be quite as sharp as previous kit lens from this line
Below average battery life
Somewhat confusing menu systems
I think it's time for a new sensor with more than just phase detection points
The Olympus OMD EM10 Mk II is honestly a really great camera. It will deliver excellent images in the hands of most folks and its simulated OVF mode is also great for many phot
Features/dials/buttons can be overwhelming
Continuous AF/tracking accuracy is erratic
No 4K video
Menu system is confusing
Expensive
Noise reduction in JPEGs a little strong
UHD 4K not as detailed as DCI
1080p video is soft
Subject tracking can be unreliable during burst shooting

Attractive and compact, with a broad feature set, solid kids-and-vacation performance and nice photos, the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II is a good choice for photographers on a budget who like to fiddle...
A worthy new OM-D, but not the best value out there. When we assessed the original E-M10, we thought that it was a very good little camera, and for the money, its sequel is also a very attractive package. At $799 for its kit option, the E-M10 II is th...
General design and handling (with the exception of the menus), Very fast autofocus, Builtin flash, Nice EVF, Very good picture quality up to 1600 ISO, Live Composite mode, Art Filters, Focus Bracketing mode is handy for macro, Fiveaxis stabilisation
Singlepoint rather than multipoint touchscreen, Menu structure is too complicated, No 4K video
The OM-D E-M10 Mark II is a great camera that's packed with the very best Olympus design and technology. Like its stablemates, it has a sleek retro look, a 16-Megapixel CMOS sensor and a speedy autofocus, but new technology like Focus Bracketing and five-...
Small size, Excellent EVF, Versatile and lots of customisation options
Comparatively small sensor, 4K timelapse at 5fps playback, Tilting rather than vari, angle screen

The E-M10 Mark II reminds us a lot of a refurbished American hotrod: it retains elements of the a classic's appearance while packing serious horsepower underneath. Sure, some elements of the design sacrifice practicality for style, but it is precisely the...
Abstract: The Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II is something very different. With a rapid-fire frame-rate and advanced AF system, it's a mirrorless camera optimized for high-speed photography, a situation that most mirrorless cameras fall flat in. It also has in-body optic...
