Can this lens be used on the O-MD E-M10? If so, which IS system is operating?

Yes it can. It's still a m4/3 mount so the lens fits. But as is with my EM5, turn off the lens IS and just use the in body it is far superior to the lens IS.

I believe the O-MD E-M10 is a micro four thirds mount. So this lens will fit perfectly. When I used this lens on Olympus cameras you could use either IS system. The switch on the camera controls the lens, software controls the camera. You can even use them both at the same time (at least I did, but did not see any difference over using one at a time). The benefit of the lens IS is that it works using video. Some Olympus cameras (e-pm1 for example) cannot use the sensor based IS system when taking video, it uses digital IS which gives a rolling shutter effect (wobbely image). Hope that helps.

Yup! It's all the same micro 4/3 mount. It should work just fine. I like mine a lot. I use it on my G5 and GH1.

As far as I know, all M4/3 lenses work with any Panny or Olympus M4/3 mount camera.

I think Tom's answer is the right think to do, I was photographing off road races the last week and as. A test bring my Oly epl 3 with two prime MD lenses a 50 and 200, using the same adapter and works surprisingly GOOD, if you try everything and doesn't work may be its defective! good Luck always here to help if you need.

Yes it would work , but you will have to consider that your camera will loose control over the f's and in the viewfinder would be seen as a msj "F error " but right now thats fully manual !!! Works great and fits most of the MD lens on market...

This lens is a micro 4/3 lens and is thus compatible with the OM-D E-M1, E-M5 and E-M10, which are all micro 4/3 format as well.

On the Olympus OM-D E-M1, you can go to the Custom Menu/Release/Lens I.S. Priority. Choose "ON" to turn the OIS on, or choose "OFF" to turn the OIS off. Be sure to turn off the Olympus IBIS if you turn on the lens OIS, otherwise they will "fight" each other.

It does work with my EPM-10. Used it originally on the E-PM1 with about the same degree of success. All electronics pass through and work with Olympus lenses which means you can pull autofocus. You will have to experiment to see what works best. Not the same as a true macro lens but a good start.

I bought this for my GH4 and it works fine. I believe the Olympus OM-D E-M1 has a mft mount as well. So YES, it should work.

I have both the E=M 10 as well as the E-M 5ii and the lens is great with either. Its a worthwhile purchase for the price. I find it sharp, exellent color and a good all around lens for eveeyday use.

The official answer from Olympus: Compatible: E-PL6 / E-PL5 / E-PL3 E-PM2 / E-PM1 /OM-D E-M5/ OM-D E-M1

it's not OS-specific, it's a physical lens. all you need is make sure the lens can clip on properly on top of the camera. That's model specific...

Aparently the same cable works on both!!You must state the camera brand and model when ordering!!I have both but have used it only on the E-M1!!The choice of cables is more by camera maker than model!!Albert E

Any Micro 4/3 lens will work on the E-M10 whether Panasonic, Sigma or Olympus though different brands may not provide all the automated features the camera is capable of. Any Olympus lens labeled as M.Zuiko is a Micro 4/3 lens and will provide full compatibility.

Definitely - I use it on my E-M5 all the time. It's a great sharp lens. I prefer it to the Panasonic Leica.

I shot the 12-60 on the E-620. The E-620, in size, is larger than the e-m10 however, I think the difference in construction makes the e-m10 heavier. I'd say that the 12-60 on the e-m10 would be a better balanced combination than with the E-620, although with the added length from the adapter for the m43, I'd cradle the lens regardless. In my opinion, it's a nice piece of glass worth any slight inconvenience from weight or size. Hope that helps.

I own the adapter, I own old AI lenses and EXPECT the combination to work! I have yet to purchase the X E1. (so I cannot tell you for sure)

I can't be 100% posiitive without actually trying it on that camera but since the E-M5 is supposed to use the same micro 4/3 mount lenses that might E-PL1 camera uses, I don't see why it wouldn't.

Not sure, my OMD E-M10 seems to have trouble with autofocus in certain conditions, most of the time it work well, but in low contrast conditions it struggles. It only has contrast focusing, no phase focusing. If I were going to spend the money to go to Africa I might consider the next level, the OMD E-M1. I know twice as much money, but it has a better auto focus system, and is weather sealed.
