The editors didn't like
It produces good-but-not-great photos and videos
Viewfinder could be comfier
Smaller sensor than rivals
Smaller sensor size than other big name rivals
Nose butts up against LCD screen when using eye level viewfinder
Threeaxis rather than fiveaxis stabilisation
A little slow to start up with the pancake lens and its electronicpowered zoom
Abstract: An internet review site likened the E-M5 to a gazelle, which is also good simile for the E-M10. As soon as you put the camera to your eye, it automatically switches off the rear screen and enables the electronic view finder. The rear dial I have programme...
Abstract: The PEN E-PL7, the smallest hybrid in Olympus' 2014 range, has definitely taken a few ideas from the OM-D E-M10. They have the same 4/3" 16.1 Mpx CMOS sensor, the same Truepic VII processor and the same type of retro design that made the PEN series so popular. Add to that Wi-Fi connectivity, a 180° tiltable touchscreen, and you've got the E-PL7. Let's see if this little interchangeable-lens camera lives up to our expectations of style, elegance and excellent selfie-taking, all three promised by Olympus.....

Though it doesn't deliver the best photo quality, the sum of the Olympus OM-D E-M10's design, performance and features add up to a nice upgrade from a point-and-shoot....

As with Panasonic's GM1, at the heart of the E-M10 sits a Four Thirds (4/3-inch) sensor. This is physically smaller than the APS-C chips found in actual DSLRs and competing CSC brands such as Canon (with its solitary EOS M) Fuji, Samsung and Sony. But bot...
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...
