Olympus E-M5 Mark III Print Quality & Image Quality Comparison
Olympus E-M5 Mark III Print Quality Analysis
Editor's Note: Fear not! Our E-M5 III print quality analysis is coming. Due to the current pandemic situation, we've had to limit our time at IR's Galagtic HQ. Rest assured that once we are able to return to HQ, we'll fire up the printer once more.
Olympus E-M5 Mark III Image Quality Comparison
Below are crops from our laboratory Still Life target comparing the Olympus E-M5 Mark III's JPEG image quality to a number of competing cameras featuring either similar resolution sensors or price points. For this comparison set, we're showing it up against the its predecessor, the Olympus E-M5 II, as well as the Olympus E-M1 II, the Fujifilm X-T30, Nikon Z50, and the Panasonic G95.
NOTE: These images are from best quality JPEGs straight out of the camera, at default settings including noise reduction and using the camera's actual base ISO (not extended ISO settings). All cameras in this comparison were shot with our very sharp reference lenses. Clicking any crop will take you to a carrier page where you can click once again to access the full resolution image as delivered straight from the camera.
