As a matter of course, your Olympus E-M10 Mark IV selfie camera goes wherever you go. So you can live each moment to the fullest. And share enviable, high-quality snapshots with your world.

A new everyday companion

Small in size yet big in performance, the lightweight Olympus E-M10 Mark IV compact digital camera goes wherever you go. Slip it in a bag. Throw it over your shoulder. And snap stunning shots all day long. At a party. The park. Or simply your kitchen table.

Grab a reinvented classic

Once you take hold of this 4k digital camera, you’ll never want to let go. Or be seen without it. Designed to stylishly nod to the past. With the comfortable, secure grip you desire today.

Up the performance

Thanks to the seamless interplay of the 20M Live MOS Sensor and the processor, 5-Axis Image Stabilization, and Olympus M.Zuiko lenses, you can shoot exceptional-quality, detail-rich images. Even in low-light situations and at night.

Pin-sharp handheld photos

Goodbye, blurry images. Taming a shaking hand is challenging. The Olympus E-M10 Mark IV compensates, letting you record the moment as clearly as your eyes see it. Low lighting. A wobble. A telephoto lens. No problem. 5‐Axis Image Stabilization delivers up to 4.5 stops, keeping handheld shots ultra-sharp.

Change the lens – expand your horizons

For creativity and flexibility, explore the wide selection of Olympus M. Zuiko lenses. Choose a photo opportunity. Then twist on the best-fit one. Noteworthy: Get beautiful expressions with a portrait lens. Powerful perspectives with an ultra-wide-angle zoom. And mind-blowing detail with a macro lens.

Your new selfie taker

Take your digital stories and selfie poses up a notch – with the Olympus E-M10 Mark IV. To capture yourself in self-portrait mode: flip down the touchscreen, strike a pose, and tap to shoot. One-second delay ensures your face appears front and center, not your hand.

Shoot like a pro

A wealth of advanced shooting features boosts your experience with the E-M10 Mark IV to the next level. And leaves you wanting for nothing. From taking unbelievable high-quality shots to shooting 4k video footage that’ll take your breath away.
Two modes, many possibilities: ART and SCN

New to SCN: Panorama

The mountains. The beach. A jaw-dropping cityscape. Switch to Panorama mode for sweeping shots with incredible image quality. Hold down the shutter on the Olympus E-M10 Mark IV, just like on a smartphone, then move the camera horizontally or vertically. That’s it!

Magical Art Filters When you want to make a statement (or, let’s be honest, a like-worthy Instagram post), spin the dial to ART mode. Choose from 16 Art Filters, like the now adjustable Pop Art filter and Soft Focus filter, to get your creative juices flowing. For the exact look you want, fine-tune the image filter’s level to your liking on the camera’s touchscreen – before taking a shot.

A nostalgic Touch

The latest Art Filter, Instant Film, subtly but surely adds a vintage touch to any image. Use with or without a flash to achieve different effects.

Set the scene

No two scenes and subjects are alike. SCN mode removes the settings’ guesswork by optimizing them for a wide variety of scenes, ranging from Landscape and Portrait to Candlelight. The result: perfect shots every time.

Advanced photos at your fingertips – Tap into AP

Looking to take your photography skills into pro territory – with minimal effort? Discover Advanced Photography (AP) mode. Nine pre-set options invite you to discover new techniques and features.

Hard shots, taken with ease

Use AP’s full array of shooting features for easy access to difficult shots. Swing the camera to record landscapes in Panorama. Capture the perfect light trails and car lights in Live Composite. Or play with Live Time and Multiple Exposure for original looks.

Home-shot 4k videos

Don’t just record thrilling experience, make a stunning hand-held 4k video with your talented 4k digital camera. The E-M10 Mark IV lets you capture memories and moments as high-resolution videos. When necessary, 5-Axis Image Stabilization jumps in. Keeping footage tack-sharp and shake-free – even while filming in motion

Shhh, Silent Photo mode

For moments you want to record forever, without attracting attention as they unfold: Silent Photo mode. It switches off all camera sounds – so you can shoot away. And keep the peace and quiet.

Made to rapid fire – Precise and in focus – tracking

On the slopes or on the road, tracking sequential shooting on the E-M10 Mark IV lets you expertly capture multiple shots. Using a refined algorithm, the compact digital camera locks in on your subject and follows it, refocusing between shots. For sequential shots with up to six frames per second.

Split-second details – lock sequential shooting

Know where the action is? Capture it using lock sequential shooting on the E-M10 Mark IV. The high-speed autofocus makes sure you never miss a split second. It lets you shoot up to 15 frames per second. After autofocusing just once.

Enhanced Face Priority and Eye Priority autofocus

The next generation of Face Priority and Eye Priority AF finds faces and eyes while you take a shot, and autofocuses on them. For portrait-perfect photos, every time.

Even greater potential

Chocked full of refined expandability options, the E-M10 Mark IV turns each shot into an opportunity. Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, USB charging, the OI.Share app, and the Olympus Workspace for photo editing: these are merely the beginning.
