How to View EXIF Data on an Olympus E-M10
Learn how to inspect Olympus E-M10 EXIF metadata, including camera model, lens, shutter settings, timestamps, and other hidden photo details.
Why Olympus E-M10 EXIF Data Is Worth Checking
The Olympus E-M10 series writes a useful amount of metadata into each original photo. Besides the obvious camera model, you can often inspect lens information, exposure settings, focal length, white balance, timestamps, and software history. This is helpful for both photography analysis and privacy review.
If you are auditing old images, trying to confirm which body or lens was used, or checking whether edited exports still preserve the original metadata, reading the EXIF block is the fastest way to do it.

How to Check Olympus E-M10 Metadata
- Open the EXIF Viewer.
- Upload an original JPEG from the camera if possible.
- Start with the Camera and Shooting Parameters tabs.
- Open All Data if you want the full metadata dump.
- Export JSON if you need to search or archive the full output.
The most reliable files are originals copied directly from the SD card. Photos that were sent through chat apps, resized by websites, or re-exported by editing software often lose part of the metadata.
Olympus E-M10 EXIF Parameter Table
| Field | What it tells you | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Make | Usually shows Olympus | Confirms the brand that created the file |
| Model | The camera model, such as E-M10 / E-M10 Mark II / Mark III | Helps identify the exact body used |
| LensModel | The attached lens name when recorded | Useful for reviewing focal behavior and lens choice |
| DateTimeOriginal | The original capture date and time | Important for sorting, verification, and timeline checks |
| ExposureTime | The shutter duration, for example 1/125 | Shows how the image was exposed |
| FNumber | The aperture value | Useful for depth-of-field analysis |
| ISO | The sensitivity used at capture | Helps explain noise and low-light behavior |
| FocalLength | The focal length used for that shot | Useful when comparing framing across lenses |
| WhiteBalance | Auto or manual white balance mode | Helpful for color and workflow review |
| Software | Editing or export software | Shows whether the file was changed after capture |
What You Should See in a Clean Original File
A normal original Olympus E-M10 file should usually show at least:
MakeModelDateTimeOriginalExposureTimeFNumberISOFocalLength
If some of those fields are missing, the file may have been edited, stripped, converted, or exported by another app before it reached you.
Privacy Tip for Olympus Files
Dedicated cameras often store less personal data than smartphones, but metadata still matters. EXIF can expose your shooting times, gear details, lens information, and sometimes workflow history. Before publishing sample images, it is smart to inspect the file first and remove metadata if the information is unnecessary.
Conclusion
The Olympus E-M10 is easy to audit when you start with the original file. Upload the image to the ExifCheck viewer, confirm the camera and lens fields, and then inspect the shooting parameters that matter for your workflow.
