Olympus OM-D E-M10 Review
Olympus has brought out an entry-level camera in its enthusiast-targeted OM-D line. This model, dubbed the OM-D E-M10 ($699.99 direct, body only)( at Amazon), comes in at the lowest price point for an OM-D yet. It shares many of the features of the 16-megapixel E-M5($499.00 at Amazon), and adds new ones like Wi-Fi, but some things had to go in order to meet this lower price point. The E-M10 isn't weather-sealed, and it doesn't have an accessory port, so if those are must-haves you'll need to move up to the E-M5. But it impressed us enough with its speedy focus and burst rate, overall image quality, and handling to earn our Editors' Choice award for mirrorless cameras priced under $1,000. The former owner of that top spot, the Samsung NX300($925.00 at Amazon) is still a little stronger in some areas, including low-light shooting, but the E-M10's well-rounded feature set wins out in the end.

The entry-level mirrorless OM-D E-M10 is another winner in Olympus' OM-D series. Its image quality, speedy performance, and built-in EVF earn it Editors' Choice honors.
