Camera OverviewOlympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV

The Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV is a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera built around a 20MP sensor powered by the TruePic VIII image processor. It covers an ISO range of 100 to 25600, giving photographers flexibility across a variety of lighting conditions. The autofocus system uses contrast detection and spans 121 points, with Face Detection AF, Eye Detection AF, and AI-based subject tracking all included — a strong feature set for a camera in this class.

Burst shooting reaches 15 frames per second, which is well-suited for capturing fast-moving subjects. On the video side, the E-M10 Mark IV records up to 4K at 30fps, with additional frame rate options including 24fps, 25fps, 50fps, 60fps, and 120fps, all in 8-bit color. In-body 5-axis image stabilization is present, along with digital IS for an added layer of steadiness.

The 3.0-inch tilting touchscreen LCD resolves at 1.04 million dots, while the OLED electronic viewfinder delivers 2.36 million dots at 60Hz. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Micro HDMI output, and a built-in pop-up flash with wireless capability. The polycarbonate and metal body measures 121.7 x 84.4 x 49mm and weighs 383g, with no weather sealing.

Storage is handled via SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards.
