Our Verdict

Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III

OM SYSTEM OM-5

The OM SYSTEM OM-5 and the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III are very similar cameras. The OM-5 features a newer processor, which gives it a few extra features over the E-M5 Mark III, including 'Starry Sky AF' and a digital 'Live ND' feature. That aside, however, it doesn't offer enough improvements to justify a higher price.
