The Olympus OM-D E-M10 was the third model in the OM-D series of compact, mirrorless, interchangeable-lens cameras. It is of the Micro Four Thirds type and was introduced in January 2014.

The model cost less than the OM-D E-M5 and OM-D E-M1 models that preceded it. Some features of the previous models, such as weather sealing, were not included. The E-M10 featured only a 3-way image stabilizer instead of the other models' 5-way stabilizer.

The E-M10 used the BLS-1 battery first supplied with the earlier E-P1/2 compact mirrorless cameras rather than the BLN-1 used by the OM-D E-M5 and E-M1 models.

It was succeeded by the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II in 2015.
