Olympus E-M10 IV: Flagship tech in a compact Micro Four Thirds body.
The E-M10 Mark IV packs a 20.3MP Micro Four Thirds sensor and the TruePic VIII processor into one of the smallest bodies in the OM-D lineup. That processor isn't just handling raw conversions, it's running subject detection algorithms borrowed from the E-M1 series, giving this entry-level body a focusing brain well above its price tier. The 121-point contrast-detection AF system reads scenes quickly, and at 8.7 fps continuous shooting, you have enough speed to track moving subjects without needing a sports-grade body.
The in-body image stabilization delivers around 4.5 stops of shake correction, which changes the math on handheld shooting in low light considerably. Pair that with a native ISO ceiling of 25600 and you're pulling usable frames in situations where a non-stabilized crop sensor would be struggling. UHD 4K video recording rounds out the spec sheet for shooters who cross between stills and video. The Micro Four Thirds mount gives access to one of the most mature and well-stocked compact lens ecosystems available, from wide primes to telephoto zooms, all sized proportionally to the body.
Who It's For
Travel photographers who need to pack light will find the E-M10 IV's compact form and 4.5-stop stabilized sensor a practical pairing for handheld shooting across unpredictable lighting. Street photographers benefit from the discreet size and the subject detection AF, which keeps acquisition fast without drawing attention. Videographers working run-and-gun will appreciate UHD 4K output alongside stabilization that doesn't require a gimbal for basic steadiness. Photographers moving from smartphone shooting into their first dedicated camera get access to an established lens ecosystem and E-M1-derived autofocus logic without the weight or complexity of a larger system.

FAQ
- How does the E-M10 Mark IV's AF system handle moving subjects?
- The 121-point contrast-detection system uses subject detection algorithms from Olympus's E-M1 series, so it tracks moving subjects intelligently without needing the body redesigned for sports work. Combined with 8.7 fps burst shooting, it's solid for event work or wildlife where you don't have a dedicated tracking body.
- What's the practical difference between the E-M10 Mark IV and entry-level Micro Four Thirds bodies?
- The TruePic VIII processor runs the same subject detection AF as flagship models, and 4.5 stops of in-body stabilization let you shoot handheld at shutter speeds and ISOs where comparable crop-sensor bodies would be soft. You're getting OM-D focusing intelligence in a smaller package.
- Can you shoot 4K video on this body?
- Yes, UHD 4K recording is built in. The Micro Four Thirds sensor and TruePic VIII processor handle it without external recording required.
- How does the Micro Four Thirds mount affect lens availability?
- It's one of the most developed compact lens ecosystems - you have access to fast primes, stabilized zooms, and specialty glass all sized to match the body's footprint. Prices are competitive because third-party makers (Panasonic, Sigma, Tokina) actively support the mount.
- Is 8.7 fps fast enough for professional work?
- Depends on the genre. For weddings, events, and documentary, it's adequate. For fast action sports or wildlife, you'd want the E-M1 Mark III or later. The buffer depth and autofocus consistency matter as much as raw fps.
- What's the native ISO range and how does it perform at the top end?
- ISO 200-25600 native. At 25600 the files show noise, but the TruePic VIII processor handles it better than older Olympus bodies - usable for social media and web work, not for large prints requiring clean shadows.
- Does this body have in-body stabilization?
- Yes, 5-axis sensor-shift stabilization that compensates for approximately 4.5 stops of camera shake. That's substantial enough to let you shoot slower lenses and lower shutter speeds handheld in dim light without stabilized glass.
