Olympus OM-D E-M10 III Body

16.10 Mpx, Micro Four Thirds

Product details

New operating concept
The E-M10 Mark III is the camera with which the world can be rediscovered. The OM-D is equipped with features that allow you to spontaneously develop your creativity and photographic
skills the longer you are on the move with your camera. Even those with little previous knowledge can effortlessly take professional-looking shots thanks to the four new camera modes. These can be accessed via the improved, intuitive selector wheel. They allow a menu navigation similar to the smartphone via the short cut button (right next to the on-off switch) and the touch display, for a very fast selection and realization of desired effects and camera settings.
New AUTO mode
The Auto Mode has been fundamentally revised compared to the predecessor model. He now detects blur caused by camera shake even in the dark. The Scene (SCN) mode has been enhanced to allow you to influence the desired results by selecting six themes with predefined settings.
Advanced Photo (AP) mode has been added to allow functions such as Live Composite, Live Time, Multi-exposure, HDR, Panorama, Keystone Correction, Bracketing or Focus Bracketing to be used without having to access the menu. In addition, the camera can be switched silently so that no one feels disturbed during shooting.
In (ART) mode, there is a new type of filter: Bleach Bypass, Type I gives metal surfaces a glossy effect, while Type II mimics a special color rendering and the nostalgic effect of some well-known motion pictures.
Perfect for on the go
The latest TruePic Vlll image processor from the flagship OM-D E-M1 Mark II and Olympus' unique 5-Axis Image Stabilization (IS) system provide great results in almost any shooting situation. Pin sharp and not blurred, even in low light and without a tripod. The new E-M10 Mark III also features 121 contrast AF measurement fields that cover almost the entire image area. This allows you to focus anywhere on the screen. Continuous AF can follow the movement of a subject. Especially useful for portraits are Face Priority AF and Eye Detection AF, which automatically ensure that faces are sharp and correctly exposed.
