Key Features

  • Around the world in 1000 photos

The 12.1 megapixel EXILIM EX-H10 comes with a high-performance super long-life battery, which enables you to take 1000 photos with just one battery charge. The 24 mm wide-angle lens, 10x optical zoom with mechanical image stabiliser and a wealth of intelligent functions guarantee outstanding pictures, while the HD video recording feature lets you film breathtaking and highly detailed videos.

  • 1000 pictures on one battery charge

Have you ever set up the perfect photo only to find that your battery is empty? Moments such as these are so irritating — but they can be avoided. The combination of an energy-saving processor and the high-performance super long-life battery ensures that the EXILIM EX-H10 won't run out of power even on long, eventful days — one battery charge allows you to take up to 1000 CIPA standard photos.



  • 24 mm wide-angle lens

Whether for landscape photos, tourist sights or group pictures in confined spaces, the 24 mm wide-angle lens makes the EX-H10 your perfect companion whatever the occasion. The 24 mm focal length allows you to capture a larger area and include more friends in a group photo from only a short distance away.

  • 10x optical zoom with mechanical image stabiliser

It's easy to zoom in on those special moments: the 10x optical zoom can bring even the most distant subjects right up close, while the mechanical image stabiliser automatically reduces blurring. The EX-H10 has everything you need in any situation and guarantees outstanding photos.

  • HD video recording

The HD video recording feature on the EXILIM EX-H10 allows you to shoot high-resolution and detailed videos with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels — simply press the Movie button and start recording. What's more, the 16:9 wide-screen format gives your video clips an expressive, professionally filmed character.

*Max. recording length 10 minutes/video

  • Dynamic Photo function

With the Dynamic Photo function, you can cut a subject out of a photo that has just been taken and use another photo as a background. You can even cut out several subjects from a serial picture recording and use these to create an image sequence in which only the subject moves and the background remains static.

New: You now have the option of changing the size of the subject and adapting it to the background. Dynamic Photo subjects can also be transformed into a video from the EX-H10 itself — with no need for editing on a computer.

  • Landscape Mode

The EX-H10 is equipped with a Landscape Mode for outstanding landscape photos. The outstanding image processing automatically reduces cloud, haziness or mist in the picture with the result that the skyline appears clearer, contours are shown clearly and the sky is bright. That's handy: The EX-H10 features a separate "Landscape Mode" button to activate or de-activate the function quickly.

  • 12.1 megapixels

Within its compact and elegant housing, the EX-H10 hides 12.1 megapixels, which don't just give you spectacular photos but also ensure outstanding detail. 12.1 megapixels are perfect for editing, enlarging and printing sections of photos without any reduction in picture quality.

  • EXILIM Engine 4.0

Backlight, portrait, landscape and night-time photos or poor lighting conditions — the new EXILIM Engine 4.0 image processor enables you to overcome all these challenges. The EXILIM Engine 4.0 processes complex images very quickly and ensures excellent image quality with moiré and noise suppression, making it a pleasure to take and view excellent photos. And the best is yet to come: even with the wide range of new functions and the complex data processing, the energy consumption has been reduced by almost 30%, increasing the battery life significantly.

  • Bright and high-contrast 7.6 cm (3.0 inch) TFT colour display (Super Clear LCD)

The EX-H10 features a large, bright 7.6 cm (3.0 inch) TFT colour display (Super Clear LCD) that permits viewing from almost any angle. In addition to the large viewing angle and a high resolution of 230,400 pixels, the TFT colour display provides above-average contrast, thus assuring an especially clear and sharp image of your subjects. The display also offers above-average brightness, making it easier for you to view your pictures — even in bright sunlight. You can select from 6 presets to match the brightness to the ambient lighting conditions: -1/0/+1/+2/Auto1/Auto2

OLYMPUS PEN 50th Anniversary

By using the half-frame format, Olympus was able to reduce both the weight and size of the Olympus Pen. It featured a simple rear-winding mechanism, a D-Zuiko lens for superior photographic quality, and an attractive design that also made the camera extremely easy to use. The Pen was a compact mix of innovative ideas that triggered the half-frame camera boom of the 1960s and 1970s. Cumulative sales of Pen Series cameras exceeded 17 million units. The highly original concepts embodied in the Pen Series would eventually lead to the creation of the legendary Pen F Series half-frame single-lens system.











Olympus Pen (1959)

The first-generation Olympus Pen camera appeared in 1959. The design process began with the concept of creating a camera that could be sold for ¥6,000 yen. The Pen combined the superb photographic performance of the D-Zuiko lens with excellent portability, and it was also used by professional photographers as a secondary camera.




Olympus PenEE (1961)

With the Olympus Pen EE, the emphasis was on efficiency. Features included fixed focus, a shutter speed of 1/60 sec., and automatic exposure adjustment. Anyone could take beautiful photographs simply by pushing the button. The camera was priced at ¥10,000 yen. Olympus eventually introduced eight models in the Olympus Pen EE series, which became a driving force for the popularity of the Pen cameras.


Olympus PenEES (1962)

Launched in 1962, the Olympus Pen EES was the world's first camera with a programmable EE shutter. The shutter speeds were 1/30 and 1/250 sec. The shutter speed changed automatically according to light level, thus increasing the appropriate exposure range. A three-zone focus system was used to adjust the focal point. The Olympus Pen EES heralded the start of the programmable EE camera boom.


Olympus PenD (1962)

The Olympus Pen D was introduced in 1962 as the top model in the Olympus Pen range. Many professional features were packed into its compact body, including a high-performance F1.9 large-aperture lens, a high-speed 1/500 sec. shutter, and a built-in exposure meter that allowed direct reading of the LV.



Olympus PenEM (1965)

The Olympus Pen EM went on sale in 1965 with three new features: an electronic shutter, automatic film advance, and automatic rewind.

The electronic shutter allowed an exposure range from 30 sec. down to 1/500 sec. according to the brightness of the subject. Power for the shutter, film advance and rewind systems was provided by two built-in AA batteries. While the Olympus Pen EM had a major influence on the future of electronic technology and automation in cameras, there were manufacturing problems that could not be overcome with the technology then available. Sadly, production ceased after just one year.



Olympus PenF (1963)

The Olympus Pen F was the world's first and only half-frame system single-lens reflex camera, released in 1963. The camera featured a porro-prism finder and was the first to have a rotary titanium shutter. It could be used with a highly versatile range of 20 exchangeable lenses. The Olympus Pen F was a revolutionary camera packed with innovative features. The rotary shutter, which combined speed with durability, was reportedly perfected only after long and hard effort by Olympus engineers.


Olympus PenFT (1966)

The Olympus PEN FT went on sale in 1966. Though identical to the Pen F in external appearance, it had a built-in TTL exposure meter.

When the camera was pointed at a subject, the TTL number exposure control system displayed an aperture number in the view-finder according to the shutter speed setting. There were many other enhancements, including a single-action film advance system, and a built-in self-timer.
