I bought the body only to replace an old Panasonic Lumix G6. I was specifically looking for a micro four-thirds so that I could save money on replacing the lens as well. The camera was delivered very quickly and I enjoyed getting used to the features, although I’ve barely touched the surface of what it’s capable of so far. So far I’ve only used it for a couple of social events (so people photos) and a city break, so not pushed it yet. But it’s performed well up to now. Some night photos didn’t come out too well but that was most likely due to there being too much movement, so a ‘user’ error rather than a fault of the camera. The back screen isn’t as flexible in its positioning as my previous camera and I am a little concerned that it cannot be turned over to protect it from scratches. But it’s still pretty good and it has a nice feature which makes taking selfies a little easier. It took me a few attempts to successfully connect to the App (OI Share). The Wi-Fi seems to be sensitive to VPN software and I had to turn off ‘Connect on Demand’ in my phone settings. After that it was fine and easy to use. Although I’m not a camera expert by any means, overall I’d say it’s a good buy and I’m happy with it. 4 people found this helpful

Decided to treat myself to a new camera, after a bit of reading up went for the Olympus. Used to have an OM10 years ago and the style of the OM-D just appealed. Reports praised it and it seemed to more than fulfill what I need for general snaps but also gave me all the creativity I am likely to need or use in the future, perhaps more than enough. Coupled with the Olympus f4 12-100 Pro lens, I have a system that not many years ago would have been considered semi-pro. Since also purchased the dedicated flashlight so now have the full kit. Pictures are great and we cannot fault them, excellent kit and I am extremely pleased. 7 people found this helpful

I was on the lookout for a small, lightweight micro 4/3 camera to replace my aging lumix gx85 which I used as a backup camera and as a smaller body to take anywhere when I don’t need or want to carry lots of heavy gear around. The choice was between this and the lumix gx9 and when the Oly came up at a really good price I took the plunge and bought my first Olympus body. For my needs the dumbed down menus are perfect as I used them once to set the camera up how I wanted and will probably never use them again which is great because Olympus’ menu system is not know for being easy to learn and navigate. The AP setting on the mode dial is also a great idea as it allows me to use some of Olympus’ more advanced features like live composite without having to dive into the menus. I used this for a firework display recently and it made it easy to capture the light trails from the fireworks – see attached photos. The built in image stabilisation also works well and I’ve been able to take photos in low light without pushing the iso too high. Image quality is also good and seems to be on par with all the other 20Mp m4/3rds cameras including the more expensive high end models. JPEGs are nice straight out of the camera but I tend to shoot raw which allows me to get the best out of the m43 sensor using dxo photolab 4 (tip: deep prime noise processing in that software can hold on to a lot of details while cleaning noise when you do need to use iso settings of 3200 or greater) It is a great little camera body with easy to use menus and controls, very good image quality and lots of advanced features. It’s in my camera bag when I travel or go out on a day’s shooting as a backup to my main camera and it goes out with me when I don’t want to lug a lot of gear around if I’m going to an event or a family gathering or what have you. Paired up with a nice bright prime lens it’s great for indoor or low light photography, and with a kit lens or a macro it’s perfect to carry with me when out shooting wildlife where it gets used to shoot everything I can’t do with the main camera. 18 people found this helpful

I bought the Olympus EM10 mark4 as an upgrade to my EM10 mark 2. The newer mark4 has a 20mpixel sensor replacing the mark 2’s 16mpixel. The upgrade gives impressive results, I was not dissapointed. However the mark4’s menus and options are now simplified; omitting some useful functions. Customisation of controls has been severely minimised and the saving of mysets (favourite camera settings),completely removed. Deletion preferences /instant/yes or no .. are no longer available. All in all the customisation and other functions were too much to lose so I returned the mark 4 camera and bought the Olympus EM5 mark3; which had all the missing functions plus a 20mpixel sensor, albeit more expensive. The return experience was faultless and a great asset for future purchases. 14 people found this helpful

I researched a lot of cameras before choosing this one. Photography is my passion and for the past 3 years I’d been using my phone as the camera I had wasn’t easy to use and just triggered my anxiety. This one is perfect… so easy to use with the added bonus of WiFi so rather than having to transfer to my laptop I can just send them straight to my phone. The auto focus and image stabilising are great and I’m really happy with the photos I take. Battery life is very good too. In time I will start experimenting with the manual settings but for now the auto one has made taking photos a real pleasure. The size is perfect too… not too heavy and cumbersome. 23 people found this helpful

First let me make it clear: I don’t like smart phones much (except for making calls) so won’t compare this camera to a phone. I bought my first camera 62 years ago so I am an old school photographer. Everything was manual then and you had to learn the basics about exposure and focus etc. No ISO settings then only film speeds and developing and printing took ages but was a magical experience. Well times have changed and I am happy to move on with the advancement of technology. This camera is a good balance between the large DSLR and small compact camera. The settings are numerous and yes I probably won’t use half of them but they are available for those who feel inclined to do so. The camera is not too heavy but solid enough to hold firmly. They say it is a bit plastic but it doesn’t seem obvious. The results are excellent and satisfactory with all my lenses. It also looks a bit old fashioned which reminds me of my early photographic days. No doubt there are better cameras available and definitely a lot worse but I am personally more than happy with the EM10. Cameras are a personal taste so it’s a case of finding one you are happy with. No matter how good a camera you won’t take good pictures with it if you don’t like it. I would give it 5 stars but there is always room for improvement. 13 people found this helpful

So far I’m delighted with this camera. The size and weight are perfect for street and travel and ergonomically it sits very well in the hand. People have mentioned in reviews that the menus are difficult to navigate. To be honest, there are one or two quirks but for the main part it is easy to set this camera up in aperture or shutter priority modes and the semi-automatic modes are a doddle to use. I love the haptic feedback from the mechanical shutter mechanism, it’s very satisfying. The speed with which it takes five exposure-bracketed shots is astonishing. The images are bright and crisp and for most purposes, 20mp is plenty. The camera copes very well with indoor shooting and I like that the auto white balance is very accurate even in shady spots where my DSLR often makes the white balance too cold. I like the fact that the display shows what focal length you’re setting with the zoom lens. There is also a menu option to choose whether the camera remembers the focal length set when the camera is turned off. Update: I am noticing that at wide angles there can be considerable flare and veiled flare in certain situations. A lens hood is not an option with this 14-42mm lens. On the whole I am still very pleased with this camera although I prefer my full-frame DSLR for landscape photos. 3 people found this helpful
