Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III

Decent 16MP images ; Five-axis internal stabilization ; Compact, lightweight ; Built-in EVF

Same sensor as E-M10 Mark II ; Autofocus isn’t great for moving subjects ; Image quality lags behind APS-C peers

Call us underwhelmed. The Mark III is a good camera for stills, but suffers when it comes to fast-moving action and video, mainly due to less-than-stellar autofocus performance. The contrast detect system simply can’t keep up with the competition. That...

Attractive retro design ; Compact body ; Excellent JPEG image quality with lovely colour rendition ; Superb in-body image stabilisation works with every lens ; Fast, accurate autofocus with static subjects

Over-simplified in-camera raw conversion ; Less reliable autofocus with moving subjects ; Sensor dated compared to APS-C competitors

The Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III is simple to use for first-time camera buyers while being capable enough for enthusiasts – and features lots of clever features that you won’t find anywhere else. This makes it one of the best cameras on the market at...

Compact, solid design. Built-in EVF and flash. Tilting touch LCD. 8.8fps burst shooting. In-body stabilization. Raw and JPG capture. In-camera art filters. Wi-Fi.

Premium finish ; Excellent EVF ; Compact proportions ; Effective IS system

16MP starting to look a little dated ; Minor update to the Mark II ; Focus-tracking could be better

The Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III might not be a massive leap forward over the Mark II, with much of the camera's specification remaining the same. However, Olympus has refined and tweaked one of our favorite mirrorless cameras to make it an even more...

Great retro style ; Autofocus improvements ; Decent image quality ; Lots of Micro Four thirds lenses to access and grow into your photography ; 4K video capture

A modest update over the Mark II model ; Still no 20MP sensor ; Plastic top/bottom plates ; Complex menu system is tricky to navigate ; No mic/headphones ports

If you're seeking a good-looking interchangeable lens mirrorless camera that can capture great shots in reasonable lighting conditions, the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III does a great job. We took it out on a number of fishing trips, a week-long holiday,...

Excellent image quality ; Affordable yet feature-packed ; Classic, retro design

Continuous AF could be better ; Fiddly menu system ; Only 16-megapixels

Image quality is excellent, so don't be put off by its resolution having a lower figure to rivals. This is a very neat mirrorless model that deserves consideration.
