OM System OM-D E-M1 Black

57.8 Best Value Score
16.3MP micro-four-thirds 1080p
Why we recommend this

It pairs a 16.3MP Micro Four Thirds sensor with 5-axis image stabilization delivering 5 stops of shake correction and a weather-sealed, 443g body built for harsh environments. The 10fps burst shooting with hybrid phase- and contrast-detect autofocus, plus a 2.36M-dot EVF and articulating touchscreen, keep operation fast and flexible. This camera suits travel photographers who need rugged portability and reliable stabilization, but its aging 1080p video and modest still-image score make it less ideal for high-resolution photography.
