The Great OM-D system!
Compared to the previous E-M1 II, and all other Olympus Micro Four Thirds cameras, the E-M1 III is an improvement in a lot of ways. Here are just a few.
Olympus claims that its newest model features the world's best stabilization performance with up to 7.5 EV (exposure value) steps of compensation which is a full stop more than it's predecessor.
They've upgraded the image processor from the old TruePic VIII to TruePic IX.
It also features Live ND filter from ND2 (1 stop) to ND32 (5 stops) which means you can see the effect of the filter on the viewfinder live before capturing your image.
With the Mark III they've also boosted the max resolution from 50 MP in tripod shot mode to 80 MP and from 25 MP in handheld to 50 MP.
The Autofocus Tracing (Eye- and Face-priority) have received a welcome update making it more advanced and faster.
You can even use the new joystick located to the top right of your viewfinder to set AF on a moving object while sequential shooting.
The shutter lifespan (suggested lifespan) has been improved from 200.000 to 400.000 actuations which yields double the lifespan of Mark II.
The NA-EM1III Housing
A camera of this caliber deserves exceptional underwater housing. The Nauticam NA-EM1III isn’t a new design, it is a refinement of the housings that have come previously. The system is field-tested, and underwater photographer approved.
The housing is small, but not at the expense of functionality or ergonomics. Integrated handles provide a sturdy and comfortable base to operate the system from. An ergonomic shutter release lever, thumb lever for AE-L / AF-L, and well-placed control dials provide the same operational feel as any Nauticam DSLR housing. Control buttons are placed within easy reach of the handles, with sufficient spacing to allow easy operation, even by feel. The ergonomic experience of this system is clearly influenced by Nauticam DSLR systems, with class-leading control access and feel.
More than just good looking, this is a rugged housing, ready to tackle thousands of hours of underwater abuse. Crafted from solid aircraft aluminum, the housing can reach depths of 100m with ease. The secure single rotating housing latch opens the housing back. The camera drops in easily. The rear-mounted housing o-ring makes maintenance simple. Dual fiber optic synch ports are standard and take advantage of the camera included the FL-LM3 flash for strobe triggering. To make the most of the E-M1 Mark III’s excellent electronic viewfinder (EVF), Nauticam allows for installation of the acclaimed 45º and 180º magnified viewfinders, providing the ultimate in composition and focus ability.
The NA-EM1III is a professional grade underwater housing, supporting the pro-level E-M1 III camera body to its full potential.
