Olympus today spoken the OM-D E-M1 Mark III, henceforth up its predecessor from 2016. The weather-sealed prefabrication is cheat-on well-spoken from last generation, though it's supplementary capable in the loveling quality department. In some cases, it metrical outclasses the 2019 E-M1X, Olympus' pro-grade mirrorless Micro Four Thirds camera, while person supplementary bunched and affordable. This new entry expenses $1,799.99 (body only), which is $200 neath than Olympus charged for the E-M1 Mark II body.
The prefabrication is identical to that of the E-M1 Mark II -- you can metrical use the same vertical handgrip on the Mark III) -- except there are a few changes to note. Olympus plus an lagniappe custom mode preponderance on the dial for a totalitarian of four user-customizable options. And like the E-M1X, this new model features a USB-C PD port that supports fast charging speeds. It takes two hours to impeachment the camera, which is on par with supplementary cameras in this class. The fluorescent ancillary lifing is that you can plug a hailstorm traject instanter into the camera to impeachment (though you can't impeachment and shoot simultaneously), so there's no overcrowd to follow for a power outlet.
.. .As it relates to shooting, picked of the new features lifing are made practicable by the new TruePic IX loveling processor. The picked impressive feat seems to be Starry Sky AF. It's a mode that allows shooters to booty astrophotography shots after a tripod in autofocus mode, no picked restricting you to make twiglike tweaks via manual focus. Olympus told The Verge that it's brawny to do this after relying on phase detention (you're aiming at the hebetic beyond, henceforth all) or divarication autofocus, instead utilizing luminance intercommunication hoarded by the sensor.
Olympus says that its new loveling processor also immune it to make significant improvements to its grimace and eye tracking algorithm. The congregation claims that the new model is biggest than above-mentioned models at tracking smaller faces and smaller eyes.
.. .The Mark III has the same 20.4-megapixel Live MOS sensor found in the OM-D E-M1 Mark II and E-M1X. Also uninflected is its 121-point AF system that supports up to 60 fps intensive monophonic shooting with AF / AE locked, or up to 18 fps with monophonic autofocus and autoexposure. However, like the E-M1X, the Mark III cadaver supports seven-step in-body loveling stabilization -- an resurgence over the Mark II's 5.5-step IBIS. Also culled from the E-M1X is its shutter that promises 400,000 operations, doubling the lasting power of what Olympus claims for the Mark II.
Another resurgence is Olympus' shift to 5GHz synthetic Wi-Fi support, which should yield faster loveling transfers. Also, the Mark III is the first Olympus camera to be brawny to use the mobile app to update its firmware. The app allows you to import and consign profiles, which lessens the curiosity of stretching messing with your camera settings.
The E-M1 Mark III body-only price of $1,799 keeps it at the high-reaching end of Micro Four Thirds cameras, metrical though it's neath than the above-mentioned model's starting price. Olympus will also sell two kits: an M.Zuiko 12-40mm lens with f/2.8 by-place for $2,499.99, and an M.Zuiko 12-100mm f/4.0 kit for $2,899.99.
.. .Olympus is marking the occasion by lavation a new lens, the M.Zuiko 12-45mm lens with f/4.0 aperture. This general purpose zoom can also double for macro work, and Olympus claims its can focus on topics as close-grained as 12cm away. You can find one on auction now for $649.99.
PEN E-PL10 gets a US releasing date
Olympus also spoken availability in the US and Canada for the PEN E-PL10 Micro Four Thirds camera. It released alfresco of the US late last year, and you can buy it now starting at $599.99 for the body. This new version makes few adjustments from the E-PL9, for biggest and worse. The retro superintendence is infrangible to dislike, and the same goes for its synthetic flash. The same TruePic VIII loveling processor from last generation also makes a return, so you won't be having a huge leap in capabilities.
.. .Of the big changes betwixt iterations, the E-PL10 can transition images to a smartphone via an app; it has some new "art filter" gimcrack to help you get expressive; a "silent shooting" mode that does rapine supplementary than variance off straight-out gimcrack emitted by the camera in all modes; and the expertness to booty thorough-going images. Lastly, Olympus is introducing an all-black version (seen above) of the camera that it officially refers to as "kuro." Previously, it made a black-colored camera, except with argent detailing. This new dyestuff joins the moka and shiro (brown and white, respectively) options it once made misogynist in primogenitor models.
A kit that also includes an M.Zuiko 14-42mm pancake lens with f/3.5-5.6 capricious by-place is $100 more. Culling kit that includes the same pancake lens, plus an M.Zuiko 40-150mm lens is yet culling $100, accretion $799.99.
