Capture the H-alpha line and capture beautiful red diffuse nebulae invisible to the naked eye in vivid, high-quality images. The OM SYSTEM E-M1 Mark III ASTRO features an IR-cut filter located in front of the sensor with optimally tuned optical characteristics to ensure nearly 100% transmittance for H-alpha rays, a key component of astronomical photography. This allows you to vividly capture the beautiful shapes and colors of nebulae illuminated by the H-alpha line, a phenomenon difficult to capture with conventional digital cameras.
Covers a wide range of photography scenes, from starry skies to astronomy. By combining it with a variety of M.ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses, from wide-angle to telephoto, you can capture beautiful images of a variety of celestial objects, from spectacular starry sky scenes to specific constellations and distant nebulae. It can also be attached to an astronomical telescope for photography using a commercially available Micro Four Thirds adapter. High-Res Shot stacking processing enables higher-quality, high-resolution images. High-Res Shot is a computational photography feature unique to the OM SYSTEM that utilizes ultra-high-density pixel information obtained from multiple shots to achieve high-resolution images. While "Handheld High-Res Shot" is typically used for handheld shooting, by using it with the camera mounted on a tripod or equatorial mount, the "stacking" process commonly used in astrophotography can be performed in the camera body in a single shot. This not only enhances resolution but also reduces noise. The "Handheld High-Res Shot" feature on the E-M1 Mark III utilizes slight misalignments that occur during shooting to generate a high-resolution image of approximately 50 megapixels from 16 individual shots. Since each image is aligned during image composition, using "Handheld High-Res Shot" with the camera mounted on a tripod compensates for the movement of stars due to diurnal motion when creating a composite image. Additionally, when using an equatorial mount, the composite image corrects for star misalignment caused by tracking errors. Other Features: Custom Modes C1 and C2 (Mode Dial) for convenient camera settings for astrophotography. As with the E-M1 Mark III, the camera features a variety of functions ideal for astrophotography. Starry Sky AF for focusing on stars. Live Composite function ideal for shooting star trails. Digital level for easy leveling, even in dark environments. USB power supply from USB/PD-compatible devices for long-term shooting. Incredibly Compact and Lightweight Body with Top-Class Image Quality. The compact, lightweight body reduces photographer fatigue, and features the world's highest image stabilization (7.5 stops) and the new TruePic IX image processor, delivering top-class image quality. Supports 50-megapixel Handheld High-Res Shot and Live ND, enabling even the smallest system to capture high-quality images with ease. Olympus' proprietary advanced image stabilization technology minimizes camera shake even with handheld shooting at a 4-second shutter speed. The OM-D E-M1 Mark III captures images with minimal camera shake, even at a 4-second shutter speed. Eliminating the need for a tripod, even in low-light conditions or with super-telephoto lenses, dramatically increases shooting flexibility. 50-megapixel Handheld High-Res Shot: Supports handheld High-Res Shot, generating approximately 50-megapixel high-resolution photos using 320 million pixel information captured through 16 shots. Capture ultra-high-resolution photos handheld, even in mountainous areas where moving around frequently or tripods are not possible. Multiple-shot merging provides noise reduction equivalent to approximately two stops of ISO sensitivity, making it particularly effective for landscapes requiring high resolution in fine details and night scenes using high ISO sensitivity. Live ND: This function merging multiple images to simulate a slow shutter effect without the need for an ND filter. Five levels of effect are available, from ND2 (1 stop) to ND32 (5 stops), and the slow shutter effect can be confirmed in the viewfinder before shooting. Not only does it eliminate the hassle of changing filters for each shooting scene or lens, but it can also be used when using lenses that are difficult to attach filters to. Another benefit of Live ND is that, because it allows in all light without reducing it, it results in less noise in photos compared to using an ND filter.
Absolute Reliability: The lightweight and durable magnesium alloy body incorporates Olympus's superior technologies, cultivated over many years, including dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof performance, a dust reduction system highly acclaimed by professional photographers, and a shutter unit with a durability of 400,000 shots. It delivers high reliability to meet the needs of professional photographers working in harsh environments.
Dustproof, Splashproof, and Freezeproof: The rugged magnesium alloy body, equipped with sealing for dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof performance, allows you to shoot in any weather or environment. Splashproof performance is guaranteed at Ingress Protection Class 1 (IPX1). When paired with a dust- and splash-proof M.ZUIKO PRO lens, you can focus on shooting without the need for a rain cover, even in harsh environments like rain or dust.
Advanced AF System and High Speed: The advanced AF system inherits the OM-D E-M1X's AF algorithm and customizability, and its high-speed AF/AE tracking continuous shooting at approximately 18 frames per second ensures accurate capture of fast-moving subjects. The highly-requested multi-selector is now also included, allowing for smoother AF target movement even during moving subject shooting. Furthermore, a new "Starry Sky AF" mode is now available, enabling highly accurate AF focusing on stars, which previously required manual focusing. Face and eye priority AF also boasts significantly improved face and eye detection accuracy and tracking.
121-point all-cross-type on-chip phase-detection AF sensor. All 121 AF points feature cross-type AF, which detects both vertical and horizontal lines and provides high-performance acquisition. The wide focusing area, covering 75% vertically and 80% horizontally of the screen, and the advanced AF algorithm maintain high accuracy even when capturing fast-moving subjects. Furthermore, the image plane phase detection AF is not limited by light flux, ensuring high AF accuracy across the entire focusing area, even when using large-aperture lenses such as F1.2. High-Speed ​​Continuous Shooting with AF/AE Tracking at up to approximately 18 frames per second. High-speed continuous shooting at up to 18 frames per second with AF/AE tracking is possible while maintaining the full 20.37 million effective pixels. Live View display is also supported during continuous shooting, allowing you to accurately track and capture fast-moving subjects. There's also a View Assist function that converts the image to the appropriate color gamut.
