The Olympus mju-II / Stylus Epic, renowned for its sharp 35mm F2 lens, has become a highly-coveted film camera. Amidst this legacy, an Olympus executive has confirmed the launch of new Olympus-branded cameras next year, emphasizing a focus on video capabilities. These cameras are crafted to equip creators at all levels with a compact, lightweight system for producing exceptional content.
Olympus Cameras (ad) are no longer part of the Olympus Corporation, having been sold to JIP in June 2020. Despite this change, the brand continues to innovate, particularly in the Micro Four Thirds lineup, such as the Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark III.
The compact E-M10 Mark IV, part of the Olympus OM-D series, is designed for convenience and mobility. It allows photographers to capture high-quality images without the burden of heavy equipment. This camera is a nod to the beloved Olympus OM range of 35mm SLRs, combining modern technology with classic design elements.
Olympus’ focus extends beyond cameras to include audio recorders and binoculars, although these are no longer under the direct purview of Olympus Corporation. This diversified portfolio underscores the brand’s commitment to catering to a broad spectrum of creative needs.
With the rise of remote connectivity, the importance of video streaming has surged. Olympus’ latest offerings are poised to meet this demand, offering a blend of quality, portability, and advanced features, appealing to both professional and amateur photographers alike.
