Olympus E-M10 II vs Pentax Efina

Below, we will be analyzing the Olympus E-M10 II and Pentax Efina, former being a Entry-Level Mirrorless while the latter is a Ultracompact by companies Olympus and Pentax. The image resolution of the E-M10 II (16MP) and the Efina (14MP) is pretty comparable but the E-M10 II (Four Thirds) and Efina (1/2.3") come with totally different sensor sizing.

The E-M10 II was manufactured 2 years later than the Efina and that is a fairly significant difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both cameras come with different body type with the Olympus E-M10 II being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Pentax Efina being a Ultracompact camera.

Before going through a step-by-step comparison, below is a short summary of how the E-M10 II matches up vs the Efina with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Quite often, it is very tough to envision the contrast in sensor sizing merely by going through a spec sheet. The photograph below will help offer you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the E-M10 II and Efina.

Clearly, both of those cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The E-M10 II due to its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field simpler and the Olympus E-M10 II will show extra detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The newer E-M10 II is going to have a benefit in sensor tech.
