LCD resolution of the Olympus E-M10 II

The rear LCD screen of the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II has a resolution of 1,040,000 dots and measures 3.0 inches across its diagonal. A high-resolution display offers a clearer and crisper user experience than a lower pixel screen, notably during live view framing and image review. While the physical size of the LCD is naturally limited by the space that is available on the back of the camera, the resolution of the rear screen has continued to increase over time, with new camera models often featuring nicer rear panels as one of the key arguments for a camera upgrade.

In terms of screen handling characteristics, the LCD of the Olympus E-M10 II is touch sensitive and is flexibly attached to the body to allow for odd-angle shots.
