OM-D E-M1 Mark III

Yeah I can see why it seems like we’ve had 3 cameras that are the same that have slowly chipped away at what was needed. I don’t think that’s especially fair when looking at the E-M5.3 and the OM-5. They are based on two different “1 series” cameras, E-M1.2 and E-M1.3. The major missteps were: The E

I have had a similar kind of experience with M43. I have been shooting Fujifilm X mount since 2021 (using Nikon DSLRs before that) and I switched back to Nikon with a Z6 in 2023 (it was also my first full frame mirrorless after using a full frame D700 years ago). I thought that was it, that I would

Okay, so first of all, it seems you are pretty set on M43 / Olympus / OM System cameras. The first thing that you need to understand is that those cameras work with processor generations, and that some generations are super close, while other provide a generational leap. For example : True Pic VIII

Well personally, I would not get an E-M10.4 simply because the autofocus is only contrast detection. You might be able to get decent results sometimes but it's a bit of a gamble. I would look towards phase detection bodies instead, which fortunately there are plenty. Some options to consider : - E-M

The OM-5 Mark II is the smallest camera OM System sells new. It's a capable camera, but autofocus is not as good as OM-1 or OM-3. I have the first version of the 17mm f1.8. That's a good lens for your application. The version II should be very similar, adding weather sealing but deleting manual focu

That is not a consensus opinion, however; OM System OM-1 vs Olympus OM-D E-M1 III - The 10 Main Differences - Mirrorless Comparison https://share.google/76CBMrtpvG4JvCoD8 I own an OM-1, and it is easily the best M43 camera I've ever owned. The AI autofocus features are remarkably good. I have not tr

Congrats on the OM-5 Mark II, great first camera choice. The in-body stabilization alone will save you a ton of frustration as a beginner. For videos, the channel that clicks for most beginners is Tony & Chelsea Northrup on YouTube. They explain the exposure triangle (ISO, aperture, shutter speed) i

I used the 7–14mm f/2.8 and 12–40mm f/2.8. Bear in mind that shorter focal lengths are more forgiving of slower shutter speeds — it's somewhat easier to freeze apparent motion with a wide lens. I was more comfortable with a Lumix 42.5mm f/1.7 and Olympus 75mm f/1.8 for night shooting. The Lumix 35–1

if you have about 200 bucks to spend on the camera body and want the best out of your money : go get an E-M10 mark II, this is bar none the best camera that you'll find in this kind of price point. Spending less will get you considerably less, and spending more will not give you a ton of difference,

Indeed, it will be very interesting to see what the OM1 mark III brings to the table. A friend showed me his new E-M5 in July 2012, during the first stop of my summer holidays that year. I'd given up on bringing my Canon 5D and the heavy 24-70 / 70-200 f/2.8 zooms (long since sold) and was traveling
