Key Advantages

The lightweight magnesium alloy body makes the camera highly portable without compromising durability.

The 5-axis in-body stabilization helps capture sharp images even in low light or at slower shutter speeds.

Its user-friendly interface, including a fully articulating touchscreen, enhances ease of use for both beginners and advanced photographers.

High-resolution 20.3MP sensor paired with TruePic VIII image processor ensures excellent image quality and fast performance.

4K video and high-frame-rate Full HD recording provide versatile video creation capabilities.

Connectivity options streamline workflow by enabling wireless sharing and remote shooting.

Limitations

The Four Thirds sensor size is smaller than APS-C and full-frame sensors, which may result in less shallow depth of field and lower low-light performance compared to larger sensors.

The camera does not feature phase-detection autofocus on the sensor, relying solely on contrast-detection which may be slower in certain scenarios.

The buffer capacity limits continuous burst shooting to about 8 frames at full resolution before slowing down.

Battery life is moderate, typically providing around 320 shots per charge, which may require carrying spares for extended shoots.

Weather resistance is limited; the body is not fully weather-sealed and may be vulnerable in harsh conditions.

The single SD card slot supports only UHS-I speeds, which can be slower for high bitrate video recording compared to newer standards.
