Differences with the Olympus OM-D E-M10
The updated model retained a 16 megapixel sensor but added the 5-axis image stabilization system of the more up-market models, a 2.36M-dot OLED EVF, a "AF Targeting Pad" mode which allows you to use your thumb to move the focus point on the touchscreen LCD while you keep your eye glued to the viewfinder, a 4K video timelapse mode which allows for up to 999 frames at 5 fps that the camera will combine into a 4K video all in-camera (a big upgrade from the 720p maximum resolution of the original model), a "silent mode" using an electronic shutter offering exposure times of 1/16,000 second, and improved ergonomics (mainly the rear dial placement).
Various software updates were applied in the newer model including correction for rolling blur that affects both low-light shooting as well as horizontal and vertical shift blur that can mar macro shots.
