Olympus - OM-D E-M10 Mark IV Mirrorless Digital Camera with 14-42mm Lens - Silver
4.8(4)

Sleek but well-spec'd, the silver OM-D E-M10 Mark IV meshes many of Olympus's flagship features and technologies with the compact and highly portable E-M10 design. Incorporating the 20.3MP Micro Four Thirds sensor and TruePic VIII image processor, the E-M10 Mark IV is characterized by its UHD 4K video recording capabilities, fast 8.7 fps continuous shooting rate, and wide ISO 200-25600 sensitivity range to suit working in a variety of lighting conditions. The sensor also employs a 121-point contrast-detection AF system, which uses subject detection algorithms from the E-M1-series, for fast, accurate, and intelligent focusing performance. Additionally, 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilization is also featured, which compensates for approximately 4.5 stops of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting.

    Nice lens, quality build

    On my BMPCC the 12mm is equivalent to a 35mm lens. The image quality is awesome with no noticeable vignetting or CA. At f/2.0 it is still relatively fast in low light situations. Bought the lens on sale so feel like I got a great deal for money (some rival lenses I considered and tested are cheaper I feel they are flawed in comparison. Image reproduction is equal, if not better, than some more expensive glass.

    Great micro-four/thirds lens.

    This lens was a perfect fit for my Olympus Pen-F camera. It takes sharp and clear photos and gives me the wide-angle option I was looking for. I am completely satisfied with the lens and with Best Buy's continuing good customer service. A great online transaction. Thanks, Best Buy!

    Nice lens

    Nice Pics. I just had to get used to the manual focus ring. Took some family shots that turned out blurry because I wasn't paying attention. Very satisfied
