Expanded Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III Key Features:
Olympus 12-40mm f2.8 M.ZUIKO PRO Micro Four Thirds Lens
The Olympus 12-40mm f2.8 M.ZUIKO PRO Micro Four Thirds Lens has a bright aperture of f2.8 throughout the entire zoom range, from wide-angle to mid-zoom. With its water, dust, and freeze-proof structure it is ideal for a wide variety of photographic genres including landscapes, group-shots, night scenes, portraiture and more. Subtle, gorgeous background blur is achieved thanks to the Micro Four Thirds mount and a 7-blade circular diaphragm.
Impressive Auto Focus
The E-M5 Mark III features an impressively accurate 121-point all cross-type on-chip phase detection AF system that does not degrade across the frame. Thanks to the improved algorithm that Olympus has implemented, this auto focus system offers high-speed, high-precision auto focus acquisition regardless of lens or subject.
Compact, Weather Resistant and Versatile
Olympus has continued with their classic and ergonomic design whilst providing a lightweight and compact body. The design makes this camera perfect for a pick-up-and-go photographer, but also caters to different styles as well. Moreover, the camera is weather-proof, offering dust, splash and freeze (down to -10°) resistance which makes it a very versatile option.
Unique Shooting Features
Olympus has included some unique shooting modes that allow for ultimate creativity with your photography. Two notable features include a Pro-Capture mode which is perfect for time sensitive shooting such as wildlife. This mode will start preemptively shooting as the shutter button is half depressed, meaning that you will not miss the perfect moment. Secondly, there is the Tripod High Res Shot mode. This mode will shift the image sensor in 0.5-pixel increments whilst taking 8 sequential photos. These are then merged into one single image, equivalent to that of a 50 megapixel photo - Perfect for landscape photographers.
