Product details
The handy and robust design, combined with uncompromising image quality and good image stabilisation, make the E-M1 Mark III your indispensable companion in all weather conditions. Achieve a new dimension
of professionalism without burdening yourself with heavy equipment. The new TruePic IX image processor, a highly precise and fast autofocus system and various unique shooting functions, together with the high-quality M.Zuiko lenses, enable you to achieve professional results anytime, anywhere.
By synchronizing the image stabilizer integrated in Sync-IS lenses with the housing's 5-axis image stabilizer, the E-M1 Mark III achieves the world's best image stabilization with compensation of up to 7.5 EV steps (5-axis Sync-IS). This allows you to take pictures in dark environments or even supertelephoto shots without using a tripod. Without Sync-IS, the image stabilizer integrated into the housing compensates up to 7.0 EV steps, regardless of the Micro Four Thirds lens used.
The robust, magnesium alloy housing of the OM-D E-M1 Mark III is dust and splash-proof as well as frost-proof and thus perfectly suited for use in particularly harsh environments.
The new TruePic IX image processor in combination with the 20.4 megapixel live MOS sensor, the wide range of powerful M.Zuiko lenses and 5-axis image stabilization ensures maximum image quality right to the edge of the frame. Users who require higher resolution can use the 50 MP handheld High-Res-Shot function for approximately 50 megapixel images without using a tripod. The Tripod High-Reshot function allows users to shoot ultra-high resolution RAW and JPEG images equivalent to an 80-megapixel image.
The new M. Zuiko Digital ED 12-40 mm 1:2.8 has been developed to meet the needs of professional photographers in every respect. It is the first lens in the new PRO category. In combination with the OM-D, the user can look forward to an incredibly fast AF performance. With an aperture of 1:2.8 over the entire focal length range (24-80 mm for a 35 mm camera), technologies such as MSC and the manual focus mechanism, high-quality image results are guaranteed in a wide variety of photographic situations. Dust and splash-proof, it is always ready when you need it.
