OM-D design

Don’t let its affordable price point and compact size fool you – the E-M10 is the camera for people who place top priority on top-quality photos and movies. The design is sure to catch the eye of users straight away. While DSLR makers use cast plastic to make their models at least a little lighter, Olympus offers a camera made entirely of metal. The E-M10 is a triumph of design and engineering, a pleasure to hold and a truly tactile aesthetic pleasure to behold.

Even in the Micro 4/3 category, the E-M10 stands out for its compact size. Especially when compared to a kit equipped with the new M lens.ZUIKO DIGITAL 14-42mm 1:3.5-5.6 EZ.

OM-D image quality Just like the rest of the OM-D range, the E-M10 can deliver superb image quality. Olympus engineers combine two key attributes that are directly responsible for image quality.

First, the E-M10 uses the same 16-megapixel Live MOS sensor as the OM-D E-M5.Experts say its shots are every bit as good as those taken with DSLRs.

And second, the sensor works in tandem with the next generation TruePic VII processor used in the OM-D E-M1. So you get the camera with the greatest potential in your hands. Thanks to the TruePic VII processor you can make the most of high-quality optics, such as Fine Detail II that adapts settings according to individual lens characteristics and aperture settings.

The other strong point is moiré removal, a feature only found in digital cameras that don’t have a low-pass filter. An added plus is the 3-axis stabilization system, which levels out deviations and oscillations during HD stills or movies, no matter what lens is used, what lighting conditions, whether you use a shutter speed of 1/15 sec. or smaller. Not every E-M10 owner will probably go into detail about how each of the elements of this complex system works, but everyone will appreciate the excellent image quality without exception.
