Olympus has announced two new products today: the OM-D E-M10 Mark IV camera and the M.Zuiko Digital ED 100-400mm F5.0-6.3 IS lens.
The OM-D E-M10 Mark IV is a compact and lightweight camera designed for creators featuring a 20.3-megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor, 5-axis stabilization with Sensor Shift, a flip-down screen, and a 2.36m-dot 0.67x-magnification OLED EVF. It shoots raw stills at up to 8.7 frames per second with its mechanical shutter, 15 frames per second with its electronic shutter, and video at up to 4K 30p, recording to a single UHS-II SD card. With the battery, it weighs a mere 17.04 oz (483 grams) and as Olympus notes, it weighs less than a 500 ml bottle of water when paired with the standard kit lens.
The camera will be available from mid-August at a price of $699, or $799 when paired with the 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ lens.
Olympus has also announced the M.Zuiko Digital ED 100-400mm f/5-6.3 IS, a telephoto zoom that offers the 35mm equivalent of 200-800mm. This will offer some impressive reach despite weighing just 2.46 lb (1,120 grams), and includes dust proof and splash proof performance. The lens will be on sale in September and will cost $1,499.
