Olympus interchangeable lens camera systems’ biggest benefit is its amazing mobility, thanks to the compact, lightweight nature of the cameras and powerful image stabilization, combined with an entire lineup of high-resolution and high-performance M.Zuiko lenses–resulting in consistently sharp, high-...
The 3x optical zoom is controlled by a toggle lever on top of the camera, allowing you to zoom fairly seamlessly from wide-angle to telephoto settings. (The zoom lenses on some cameras have certain "preferred" positions, a limitation we didn't observe with the D-510.) An additional 3x D...
Olympus took an extra step, however, to invoke the memory of their OM-series cameras. If you pop up the E-410's flash, you can see the same shape found on the OM-1's pentaprism housing. It's a subtle, but interesting homage. Because of the natural shape of a pentaprism or Penta...
The Olympus OMD EM10 Mark III is a very compact mirrorless camera that perfectly balances retro-styling with modern functionality. Measuring 122x84x49.5mm and weighing 410g with battery, it’s only fractionally larger and heavier than its predecessor and remains one of the smallest cameras around ...
For me the redesigned controls on the EM1 were a triumph over the original EM5, and now the EM5 Mark II enjoys a similar boost in usability and handling. Below you can see the EM5 Mark II on the left and the original EM5 on the right; both cameras are available in black or silver,...

The orange mark at our Leitax mount is the exact scale center of the Zuiko-OM lenses. And it can be used as a rough guide to mount the lenses on Pentax cameras, as it is very near of the red dot position. Now you can order the Olympus Zuiko OM-Pentax bayonet here. ...
CES 2003: Olympus has announced the first digital cameras to carry their famous Mju (Europe) and Stylus (North America) names. The 300 Digital and 400 Digital have an all metal 'weather proof' body, a three times optical zoom lens, three and four megapixel sensors respectively. Both ...
level for both bird photography and other genres. The IBIS (in body image stabilization) with these cameras is rated for 7 stops. Obviously bird movement can limit the use of slow shutter speeds. The Olympus IBIS system has allowed me to regularly capture multiple second handheld landscape ...
Olympus is good to divers, snorkelers and those who do not constantly want to baby their cameras. They have weatherproof models in their lineup that do not mind a bit of rain or an occasional splash. They also offer dedicated deepwater housings and they make cameras that you can take under...
