help Olympus E-M10 Mark III (Low Light Kit) FAQ
Why is the Olympus E-M10 Mark III useful for low-light photography?
The camera has five-axis in-body image stabilization, which can reduce blur from hand movement when using slower shutter speeds. Its TruePic VIII processor was also designed to improve image processing in difficult lighting.
What kind of lens should be paired with the E-M10 Mark III for night photography?
A fast Micro Four Thirds prime lens with a wide aperture, such as an f/1.8 lens, is a practical match for dim interiors, street scenes, and stars. The fast aperture gathers more light, while the camera's stabilization helps with stationary subjects.
Can the Olympus E-M10 Mark III record 4K video?
Yes, the E-M10 Mark III supports Ultra HD 4K movie recording. The camera was introduced in 2017 and uses the Micro Four Thirds lens mount, so it can share lenses with many Olympus and Panasonic bodies.
Is image stabilization enough for photographing moving subjects at night?
No. Stabilization mainly compensates for camera movement, not for a person, animal, or vehicle moving through the frame. For moving subjects, the fast prime lens and a sufficiently quick shutter speed matter more than stabilization alone.
