Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III Mirrorless Camera with 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO Lens

The Olympus E-M5 Mark III Camera is perfect for individuals seeking adventure and exploring new places. It’s compact enough to go anywhere and never get in your way and lightweight enough to shoot all day without getting exhausted. This bundle from [Store View] gives you the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III Camera Body (Black) and a digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 wide angle zoom lens.

Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III Camera Body

It utilizes a 20MP Live MOS sensor and TruePic VIII image processor that combine together to produce high-quality images and up to 4K videos. The camera is capable of recording Cinema 4K video with OM-D movie. It supports lightning-fast sequential shooting with a maximum speed of 30 fps with focus and exposure locked. A powerful 5-axis in-body image stabilization system offers up to 6.5 EV stops compensation for outstanding performance during handheld shooting. The Olympus E-M5 Mark III comes with an impressive range of pro functions like advanced autofocusing, 50MP tripod high-res shot, Pro capture, Focus bracketing and focus stacking, Anti-flicker shooting, and more, that help fuel your interest in photography.

Compact and Lightweight

The E-M5 Mark III is one of the most portable camera systems; it’s 55% smaller and 64% lighter than leading full-frame mirrorless cameras. You’ll move with greater ease and have more energy to focus on enjoying the moment. Capture the world without being weighed down.

Image Quality

The 20MP Live MOS Sensor and TruePic VIII Image Processor are responsible for the E-M5 Mark III’s exceptional image quality. The sensor produces images with natural tones and minimal noise even at high ISO sensitivities.

121-Point All-Cross Type On-Chip Phase Detection AF

At the heart of advanced focus system is a 121-point all-cross type on-chip Phase Detection AF. It does one thing really well: locking focus on any subject, in any environment. Each AF point is cross-type for reliable vertical and horizontal tracking. The points are spread across the entire image sensor for maximum autofocus coverage. You’ll capture fast-moving subjects and split-second action every time.

30 fps Sequential Shooting

Sometimes you need a camera with lots of speed and no lag. The E-M5 Mark III delivers. Reel off a mind-blowing 30 fps to shoot some of the fastest moving subjects on earth or use the mechanical shutter and capture 10 high-resolution fps.

Vivid Colors and High Contrast

The 2.36 million dot OLED viewfinder is used on the Olympus E-M5 Mark III to deliver vivid colors and a high contrast display. A long eye point is designed for easy viewing, even when wearing glasses.

Continuous AF Tracking

The OM-D E-M5 Mark III gives you highly precise tracking no matter how crowded the scene or how unpredictable your subject is. An advanced Tracking AF Mode lets you simultaneously shoot and focus on a specific subject. Use the Center Priority/Center Start in C-AF to track subjects with consistent movement and for rapidly moving subjects. Adjust the tracking sensitivity to match your subject’s movement and speed.

5-Axis Image Stabilization

The camera’s 5-axis in-body image stabilization system lets you leave tripods behind when shooting crisp telephoto images or bright, clear low-light shots. This system provides an astounding 5.5 shutter steps of compensation for all types of camera movement. Take handheld telephoto shots and capture low light scenes without stabilizing equipment. Enjoy more shooting flexibility because you’ll have less extra gear to carry.

50MP High Resolution Shot

Taking a 50MP photo is as easy as setting up a tripod and attaching the E-M5 Mark III. The Tripod High Res Shot Mode does the work. The image sensor automatically moves in 0.5-pixel increments while taking 8 shots in under a second. The shots are merged together creating one unbelievably detailed, super-sharp image.

Supersonic Wave Filter

Change lenses outdoors without getting dust on the sensor. The Supersonic Wave Filter oscillates 30,000 times per second to instantly shake dust and dirt away from the image sensor so it stays pristine.

1/8000-Second High Speed Mechanical Shutter

Shoot in bright outdoor conditions and create shallow depth of field. A maximum 1/8000-second High Speed Mechanical Shutter lets you use a large aperture lens in sunny conditions and still achieve beautiful defocused backgrounds.

Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 Wide Angle Zoom Lens

The Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO Lens is a wide-angle to portrait-length zoom lens that is compatible with the Micro Four Thirds system. The 12-40mm focal length provides a 35mm-equivalent field of view of 24-80mm and a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture enables consistent low-light performance and shallow depth of field control throughout the zoom range. The lens construction integrates an array of aspherical, extra-low dispersion, high-refractive index, and HD lens elements to provide a comprehensive reduction in chromatic aberrations and distortion while also contributing to high overall image sharpness, clarity, and color fidelity.

Image AF Linear Motor Drive System

A high-speed imager AF linear motor drive system provides fast, smooth, and quiet focusing performance and the MSC (Movie and Still Image Compatible) designation indicates this lens' suitability for use with fast-moving subjects and video applications. Additionally, a manual focus clutch enables quick, seamless shifting between auto and manual focus control.

Lens Construction

The lens features a dust, freeze, and drip-proof construction that are tailored to its use in inclement conditions. The 12-40mm lens provides a 35mm-equivalent field of view of 24-80mm, covering wide-angle to portrait-length perspectives.
