Who the OM System OM-D E-M10 Mark III is for

The OM System OM-D E-M10 Mark III is a 16.1MP Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera, a versatile all-rounder.

A 16MP entry Micro Four Thirds camera that added 4K video to the popular E-M10 line.
Simplified, beginner-friendly controls in a compact retro body.
A tilting touchscreen and access to the broad MFT lens lineup for everyday shooting.

Keep in mind

No in-body stabilisation — you'll lean on stabilised lenses for slow handheld shots.
Single card slot — no in-camera backup, which matters for critical paid jobs.
Not weather-sealed — take care in rain and dust.

What Micro Four Thirds means in practice

A Micro Four Thirds sensor at 16.1MP doubles the effective focal length of any lens mounted on it, so telephoto reach comes cheaply in both size and money and wide-angle coverage costs more of both. It is the smallest of the three formats here, and the systems built around it are correspondingly compact.

Video

4K tops out at 30p, which covers standard delivery but leaves no room for slowing footage down.
