In the field, I felt at home with the layout very quickly.

That&#8217;s due in part to its use of lighter body materials and although it might not be clad in a metal shell, it&#8217;s still weather-sealed (though I didn&#8217;t put that feature to the test on my shoot). More weight is saved by using a smaller battery \u2014 the same one found in the E-M10 Mark II. Now while this camera upgrade doesn&#8217;t use your existing batteries, I have to give credit to Olympus. The E-M5 Mark III can be charged via USB, so during a break, I topped up the battery via a USB power bank.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For me the biggest and most important improvement over the previous model is the Mark III\u2019s sensor. It\u2019s the same 20.4 million pixel sensor that\u2019s seen on the current E-M1 series cameras with the same 121 auto focus points, all of which are cross type and have phase detection. As I was shooting fashion, I made heavy use of face detect focusing, which worked perfectly even when the model turned to profile. Eye detect kicked in as I zoomed in closer for portraits.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61324\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61324\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61324\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-7.jpg\" alt=\"Olympus OMD E-5 Mark III\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-7.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-7-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-7-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61324\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by Gavin Hoey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61323\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61323\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61323\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-6.jpg\" alt=\"Olympus OMD E-5 Mark III\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-6.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-6-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61323\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by Gavin Hoey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-61321\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-4.jpg\" alt=\"Olympus OMD E-5 Mark III\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-4.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-4-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The auto focus was seriously fast and highly accurate. Even shooting with a slow lens in the low light conditions of a vintage aircraft, I was able to focus with ease and with very little lag. Its ISO performance is significantly superior to the 16 million pixel sensor found in the E-M5 Mark II \u2014 which means it&#8217;s an ideal camera for those who tend to shoot at a lower ISO, like myself \u2014 but its improved 5.5 stops of in-body image stabilization still gave me sharp shots handheld at 1\/3rd&nbsp;second (see below).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61329\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61329\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61329\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-Handheld-0.3sec-3200ISO-f4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-Handheld-0.3sec-3200ISO-f4.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-Handheld-0.3sec-3200ISO-f4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-Handheld-0.3sec-3200ISO-f4-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61329\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Handheld, 0.3sec, ISO 3200, f\/4 (Photo by Gavin Hoey)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On this shoot I needed to capture both still images and video content. If that sounds familiar to you then the Olympus E-M5 Mark III makes a compelling case for itself.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, all the improvements I found in focusing for still images are carried across to video, so if like me you prefer to let the camera handle focusing, it&#8217;s going to be fast and reliable. Not surprisingly, the E-M5 Mark III can now capture in 4K video footage at up to 30p but if you need something faster, it can record 120p footage in full HD. Dive a little deeper in to the video settings and C4K is available at 24p and there&#8217;s a flat profile. The external mic in jack is hidden under a side flap (but sadly there\u2019s no headphone jack).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61318\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61318\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61318\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-1-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61318\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by Gavin Hoey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61319\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61319\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61319\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-2-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61319\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by Gavin Hoey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61320\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61320\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61320\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/olympus-em5iii-gavin-hoey-3-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61320\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by Gavin Hoey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Olympus has really filled the E-M5 Mark III with features, far more then I could test in a single shoot.
