The latest model to join Olympus’ family of OM-D cameras is the OM-D E-M10 III, which comes exactly two years after its very popular predecessor, the E-M10 II.

Of all the new additions found on this camera, from its enlarged grip to its beginner-friendly menu system, the most significant by far is 4K video. Why?

The E-M10 III is the latest addition to the OM-D series. Although it has been designed with beginners in mind, it retains most of the advanced features found on other Olympus mirrorless products.

The E-M5 II is a mid-range model that aims squarely at enthusiast photographers. Despite being two years old, it has no trouble standing up against the competition with one of the best image stabilisation systems on the market, a robust construction and a few features normally reserved for the flagship models.

The two cameras have a few things in common, the most important being the Four Thirds sensor: it has 16MP of resolution and a 200-25600 ISO range. The image processor is more modern on the E-M10 mark III however and brings new functionalities such as 4K video and an updated autofocus system.
