The new Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV may lack a sexy name but it’s packed with easy-to-use features for your next travel adventure.
If you’re already planning to get out of dodge when the restrictions are lifted, you might want to take a camera with you – nothing dramatic, nothing professional, just a sturdy, portable, compact shooter that can endure the highs and lows of freedom on the road.
That camera may well be the new Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV, a micro four thirds camera system with an interchangeable lens that’s ideally suited for photography newbies or travellers looking for that gung-ho foreign correspondent camera look.

Boasting a classic mirrorless body design that’s light yet rugged, the OM-D E-M10 Mark IV builds on the award-winning Olympus OM-D series and features a powerful 20-megapixel Live MOS image sensor and TruePic VIII image-processing engine, and all the essential features you’ll need to feel your way into photography or to simply capture great post-Covid memories.
There’s a high-definition electronic viewfinder, an improved grip, and in-body 5-axis image stabilisation which comes in handy when you’re on the move. USB charging means you don’t have to search for a wall socket on the beach thanks to portable power banks, and improved autofocus – which uses the same moving subject detection algorithm available in the high-end OM-D E-M1X and which features face and eye detection – makes subject tracking a breeze, while a maximum 15 frames per second shooting rate means you’ll never miss the action.
