Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV vs OM System OM-1 Mark II
Every spec below is quoted from the makers' official pages — where a figure isn't published we say so rather than guess. Sizes are drawn at true relative scale from published dimensions, and the bag-fit row is computed against our measured bag catalog.
The 3 biggest published differences
- EVF resolution: the E-M10 IV leads at 2360K dots vs the OM-1 II's Approx. 5.76M dots.
- Burst — electronic: the E-M10 IV leads at Approx. 15fps vs the OM-1 II's Pro Capture SH1 approx. 120fps; SH2 approx. 50fps (213-frame RAW buffer at 120fps).
- In-body stabilisation: the OM-1 II leads at Up to 8.5 EV steps (Sync IS) vs the E-M10 IV's 4.5.

Spec values are the manufacturers' published figures, compared factually — we don't rank cameras. Fit verdicts are planning estimates from published interior dimensions, not guarantees. See methodology.
