Awesome video man and you make some great points. I had a Sony A6300 last year and hated the feel of it and the EVF, but it did take amazing photos. I then sold the A6300 and went with a Nikon D7200 (fantastic camera). After shooting a DSLR for a year, I began searching for something lighter and compact to take with me daily, for hiking, and for travel. I finally stumbled on a used EM10 mark ii which I purchased and boy was I impressed! The Em10 not only surpassed my expectations in image quality, but it has more features than my sub $1000 Nikon! Focus peaking, live view, live composite, quiet shutter, real time exposure in EVF are features that absolutely blew me away. I've owned the Olympus for about 6 months now and I find myself using it about 75% of time because of the convenience, ergonomics, and damn good image quality. These are fantastic cameras.

Luigiz28 I almost got the D7200 myself. Dual card slots, lots of mega pixels...nice camera. But like you said, if I am out and about, I'm not going to want to drag that around. Plus I've grown so used to the EVF as opposed to the OVF now. That's awesome that you jumped around like that. I almost had the same path. I really try to not marry myself to any one camera system.
@Luigiz287 жыл бұрын
The Post Color Blog I agree. If there's a camera that fits my needs better, then I'm going with it no matter the brand. And IMO, the EVF on the Olympus is way better than the Sony's. I hated that EVF. Enjoy your Em10 man!

Great explanation of a wonderful (yet not much publicized) camera! I have it as well and, although you mentioned it in your description, the live composite and live bulb modes are nothing short of pure magic; to see the actual OUTCOME on your monitor AS YOU ARE RECORDING long still exposures - without blowing out brighter static backgrounds - is beyond amazing! What other cameras do that?! Few brands offer such wizardry. My only regret is that I would have preferred to have the pricier M5 Mark II over the M10 Mark II(only because of the additional features of moiré-free high-rez 40MB mode and being waterproof). Thanks so much for posting this! Killer camera the M10 Mark II - I've seen it for just 399USD already! Thanks!

Choosing a camera is not just about "on paper specification", its all about what you actually need as a photographer (ergonomics, feature, resolution, color, easy to use, etc). Sony, Olympus, Canon, etc are great camera producer. They have their research department that hiring briliant enginer to built their camera. So all we need is choosing the most suitable camera for us among these great brand. For me the em10 mark ii is great, but might not great for others.

I used the sony a7 II, the biggest problem for me where the lenses, so expensive. The poor batterylife was a big drawback for me when doing proffesional shoots.The autofocus in darker situations wasnt great to. Before i used a em 5 markII and it had no trouble at all fofocussing in badly lit situations. The lenses are cheap and performed great. So i sold my Sony and got this little fellow. And boy is it a great little camera. You might think im crazy selling a fullframe camera for this one but at the end of the day performance is not olnley the sise of the sensor. Its the man standing behind the camera. And it perfformes so wel. Deadly accurate autofocus en super fast to. Slap on the 45mm f1.8 and you have a beautifull portrait lens. I absolutly love it

EM10 also. Still love it. Once I learned how to minimize compression and get rid of the factory shutter release delay, it’s tough to beat. Customizing button functions makes it operate the way I do. Face detect and eye priority are great for ultra sharp portraits which is where my money is made most of the time. Programmed Rec button for manual focus so I can then fire off shots with no need to refocus. I feel Sony has a faster more responsive focus system which is the only thing I need on certain occasions. I feel the background blur everyone uses with FF is overdone and a negative I couldn’t deal with. As well as size and expense of switching systems.

I own both the E-M10 III and the a6300. I like them both, but even as an entry level camera, the E-M10 III feels more pro in terms of overall functionality. I love the dual knobs of the Oly, something that's also in my Pentax K-70. Easier to control EV and aperture that way via the OVF, vs having to hit the Fn button on the a6300, selecting EV via joystick and then adjusting it. (I do realize that the E-M10 II is far more customizable, but I like the upgraded image processor and 4K video capability of the III.) ATM not letting go of my a6300, but I'm liking my Oly more and more... might hit a tipping point somewhere later this year after COVID 19 clears or greatly minimizes and then I'll make up my mind as to whether I should sell my entire a6300 stash and buy a E-M5 III + at least a PRO 2.8 12-40 or PRO F4 12-100 zoom. Hmmm...

I absolutely deteste what the Sony APS-C mirrorless line-up has become. NEX-7... A6000, A5100, ok... but the A6300 had my hopes up and let down massively and the A6500 didn't really address any of the issues it had. They've put focus on the small mirrorless body instead of small lenses, that is the biggest thing they could've ever done wrong. A compact system is about keeping the lenses compact, but the line-up has been pretty much left for dead for the last good 3 years and the A6x00 series is now the FF system entry level for people who can't yet afford to purchase an A7-series body, but will be getting into eventually. Keeping the body small has resulted in numerous issues, stuff like ports and functionality, but mostly chip infrastructure/internals. Basically the heat dissipation is non-existent and it does get hot and interupts operation. Giving users a mode where they can raise the temperature threshold and making it soo hot that it's unpleasant to hold, calling it 'tripod mode', is not a solution. And although the detail level and noise control is very good, the rolling shutter performance is really really bad. They should've gone for a bigger body style (think: Panasonic GH, Olympus E-M1, Fujifilm X-T, Samsung NX1, ..) and get some good piping in there for heat control and sensor data pulling. Bigger body would lead to better ergonomics and features. Like a vari-angle or atleast tilt up display (with better touchscreen implementation than that found on the A6500). A dedicated slot on the side for dual SD cards (none of that BS where you have to open the battery compartment). Proper audio interface and a megaload of buttons and dials to customize operation. But no... they haven't seen the light quite yet. Color isn't great either, especially left on default settings... will even create color channel clipping, what the heck. The E-M10 Mark II? Superb value. Though, so is a Panasonic GX80 or G80. Or Olympus' new E-M10 Mark III I bet. To me it doesn't get much better than the E-M1 Mark II and GH5 camera bodies. They have just about everything you could wish for. MFT is really killing it. And they have the actually have compact lenses to brag with! Which are in continuous development. I have an E-M5 for the day and it's really lovely too. Until Sony grows up and get their sh.. together, I'd as well put my money on either Panasonic or Olympus. It's more fun to get a bargain and not be annoyed by quirks whilst shooting and editing. So good on ya!
@PostColorGear7 жыл бұрын
I literally couldn't have said that better myself. I love the features that they are packing into the Sonys. I honestly do. But you're right. The ergonomics on that are odd too, and they definitely could have afforded to have a larger body. I'm glad you mentioned the A6500 too because that has in body stabilization and a touch lcd. But every review I've seen indicates that both of those were poorly implemented, so I dont mind saving the money I did to get the Olympus. I agree with you on the EM1 mark 2 and the GH5. Those are amazing. I may consider those for more professional work (I couldn't justify the prices for just a personal camera right now). Thanks for the comment and thanks for making me feel more confident about my decision haha
@shiznuts7 жыл бұрын
Ha, cheers m8! ;) I backed for the Veydra Mini Primes when they were on Kickstarter. The good thing is they later announced that they were going to roll out user swappable lens mounts for MFT -> E-mount. I immediately ordered a mount conversion kit as rumors about the A6300 grew stronger and stronger. APS-C to me is where the performance is at. MFT does lack a little in dynamic range especially, but also in color 'thickness' if you will (though have come a long way already!) and lowlight high ISO noise performance. With MFT less options to go wide. Less shallow depth of field too. So, APS-C would've been great, yet, nobody makes an excellent APS-C mirrorless system like Olympus & Panasonic do! Started out with the GH2, gotten the E-M1 for stills. Skipped the GH3, went with the GH4. Gotten the BMPCC. Checked out the B.I.S. on the GX80. Went with the baby GH5 that's the G80. Never used the GH4 anymore. :P And today I've ordered the GH5! There was a good deal init for me, and I'm a sucker for good deals and now with the new firmware announced... ooh la la, that does sound amazeballs. xD So... money goes towards Panasonic this round! Sorry Sony & Co, but you'll have to come up with something better than that!

I liked the look: they looked really fancy and retro, but they 'only' have 16mp, while Sony's have 24. But I overlooked the great IBIS of these cameras and I also didn't really know what a joy these cameras are to handle. These days I have a Sony for high-quality photo work; a Panasonic for high-quality video work. But when I go out just to have some fun, I take an Olympus.

I was going to go with the mark3 in this body but I read a lot of reviews that said there wasn’t much difference two technology wise. They upgraded the processor and I think, added one art filter ( bleach bypass) but took away a lot of features that were very useful . It seems they made the menu more beginner friendly. I’m new to micro 4/3 so the newer body might have been easier to learn but I will see how this goes. I also use Canon T7i but I don’t really care for it! I used the Canon T3i for 6 years and just decided to order a new body because I used my body literally until it started to die! Lol! I thought that the T7 I would be fantastic. It doesn’t come close to the quality of the T3i! I can’t explain it. I will try both of these camera’s and make my decision.

I agree with everyone's assessment. I sold my EM10 mark 2 and bought an EM5 Mark 2 because despite the 4k video, the rest of the specs didn't impress me at all. And in reference to Canon, I had the 60D years ago, but I sold that to go to Sony and havent looked back. The unfortunate thing with Canon is that their upgrades are so minimal that it almost doesn't seem worth it. All that aside, I can still recommend this camera, and the EM5 mark 2 if you wanted to go that route.

I really want to get into macro and there are a lot of great lens choices for the 4/3rds system. I was thinking of buying the Lumix Gx9 but I keep hearing and reading that it’s more of s street shooter and the dynamic range isn’t great as far as landscapes , wildflowers, nature shots and abstracts.

I also bought a Fuji later on (for the aperture ring and film camera style controls), the Sony is the only camera that I actually wanted to get rid of (and did!). The lack of touchscreen was a dealbreaker for me doing street photography. Worlds fastest AF is irrelevant if it takes several seconds to select the focus point. I didn't have the stomach to pay another 50% (£500, plus the depreciation on the a6300 of £350 in less than a year) for the a6500 just for a touchscreen.

If you're doing those things, even as a MFT lover I have to say that my APS-C Canon does a better job in photography. MFT photos are good, but especially for landscape photography, the benefits of a larger sensor are undeniable. For video, things get a bit more murky, but for landscape photography you want a larger sensor if you can afford it. If you'd like to stick with the MFT system, spend some good money on a high-quality wide lens like the Panasonic 12-35mm f/2.8.

Hi, I have this exact camera and recently my Olympus M. Zuiko Digital 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ lens broke. I am trying to find an expert in what lens I should purchase next that is best for photography and low lighting! Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
@PostColorGear4 жыл бұрын
the 12-40 2/8 is a FANTASTIC lens if it is in your budget. Also the 25mm Olympus is nice, and fairly priced too

Hi, thanks for sharing the video,i have a question, can the FOCUS and ZOOM be adjusted from the lens?
@PostColorGear6 жыл бұрын
karen Ortega depends on the lens. Do you mean does it zoom in when you manual focus? Or are you asking if you zoom and focus on the lens itself? If so, mostly nut again, depends on the lens.
@karlortegg6 жыл бұрын
The Post Color Blog yes, on the lens itself. I would like to buy this one with the 14-42 mm lens But I generally make the focus from the lens not from the screen. Thanks 4 answer

Yes, with the lens that you get with the EM10 Mark 2, you can all the adjustments on the lens itself, They do sell a 14-42mm EZ lens, but from what I know, that is/was sold with other cameras (just keep an eye out of that)

Soy aficionado a la fotografía, tengo una canon 700D y estoy mirando cambiar a olimpus m5 mark II, por menor peso y tamaño de cámara y objetivos, ademas, que tiene cuerpo sellado y estabilizado el sensor( me han hablado muy bien de ella ) Me gusta la fotografía de paisaje y callejera en especial, aunque hago de todo retrato etc.., también me gusta la sony a6000 xq la "6300" es igual pero mejorada para vídeo, pero la olimpus me gusta mucho mas, incluso por estética y no creo que se diferencien mucho en el tema del iso de Micro 4/3 al APS-C. ¿ que opinas del cambio al Micro 4/3? ¿ perderé calidad de imagen (definición)? Saludos.
@PostColorGear5 жыл бұрын
No, you will not lose any quality. People like to mention the issue with shooting in low light and the lack of shallow depth of field, but I have never really run into these issues. For example, I don't shoot very high ISOs or in very dark places, so not having a Sony A6300 didn't affect me much. I hope that answers your question

Does the Mark II or even Mark III has AA filter or no? Im selling my Pentax K-3 II and want to buy E-M10 III, i hope i will not regret :) (i wanted also Fuji x-t20 but it has no IS built-in).
@PostColorGear7 жыл бұрын
Vlad Fishermann I hear you on the Fuji. That's one of the reasons I went with Olympus. I spoke with Gordan Laing (cameralabs) and he said the Olympus em10 Mark II doesn't have an AA filter. My assumption is that the Mark 3 won't either
@Notyourdaddy837 жыл бұрын

can that adjustable curve be adjusted for video as to make the image look flat like log?

Close, sure. But because it's just adjusting the footage and not the actual gamma curve, it won't be as flat. But you can get a close approximation :)

Hello. I have some questions. I have same camera and lens as in the video and after a while I observed that the right side of the camera starts to get heated. I have the AF permanent off and other things that I don't need off. So the question is what cause that heat? The battery fault, camera or lens mechanism? I don't film and I have the LCD screen most of the time off. Do you have any insight?
@PostColorGear5 жыл бұрын
I never experienced that with mine. I would try a new battery and see if the same thing happens. If it does , try with a new lens if you have one. (but put the original battery back in) - you don't want to change too many variables at once. My guess is the battery, but it's hard for me to say.

@stevecardonefilms5 жыл бұрын
I would recommend the em10 Mk II Donald! I think the selection of lenses for this camera is better all around than the m50. You can get quality primes and pro level zooms at good prices in the MFT system. I think you would be happy with either, but Canon isn't going to let the M line cut too deeply into their R or EOS lines. As a result, they're going to hold the M system back a little bit.

A more comparable camera would be another CDAF camera, what you on about. IBIS, touch screen, it pees for me whoop whoop. YOu got suckered in. How is your focus tracking burst shooting going? Rofl. Until Oly drop the toys and put a hybrid focus system in these cameras, they are just gimmicks. Focus first, every time.

Why not the Olympus omd em 10 mark 3
@PostColorGear7 жыл бұрын
a few reasons. 1. If you mean why didnt I get the 3 instead of 2....it's because I bought it before the 3 was released. 2. I'm still debating on the mark 3. The focusing seems better, and now 4k video, but I hearing that they actually REMOVED some items too. So....I am not sure. I'd have to play with it first. I've even been peeking at the EM5 mark 2 because of the tethering option that the em 10 doesnt have.
