The Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark III is a distillation of the company’s greatest technology, and the apex of its professional camera aspirations. The smallest and lightest pro system in the world, it offers an unparalleled 7.5 stops of image stabilisation (6.5 as a base), unmatched 60fps shooting bursts (18 with AF/AE), and advanced features that simply aren’t possible on any if its rivals.

However, when its rivals include the just-launched Canon EOS-1D X Mark III and the brand-new Sony Alpha 9 II, does the Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark III have what it takes to topple the best professional cameras on the market? And why has Olympus given us a pro body when it only released the Olympus OM-D E-M1X just over a year ago? If you’re feeling a little confused about the manufacturer’s current top-tier product line, you’re not alone.
