Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II Review
The Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II ($1,999.99, body only) packs in more technology than any other camera we've reviewed in recent memory. The beefy Micro Four Thirds shooter sports a high-speed 60fps Raw capture mode, a high-resolution multi-exposure capture setting, and an in-body stabilization system that steadies both images and 4K video. It's an excellent camera, especially if you place an emphasis on video capture, but not a perfect one. Its tracking focus struggles at its quickest standard burst rate, and its image sensor lags behind APS-C competitors in resolution and high ISO performance. Our Editors' Choice for high-end mirrorless cameras, the Fujifilm X-T2 ($1,459.00 at Amazon) , doesn't have quite as an impressive spec list, but delivers a more satisfying photographic experience.
