Reviewer score 57%Olympus PEN E-PL10 is an attractive entry-level mirrorless camera that does many things well. Despite its low price, it feels well-built, and we like how it feels in the hand. Despite having a dedicated video recording button, you have to set the mode dial to the video position in order to capture 4K (it'll only capture 1080p in every other shooting mode) Autofocus is snappy and accurate in single AF mode.
