The E-M5 III featuring a larger sensor will make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Olympus E-M5 III will offer you more detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos more aggressively. The younger E-M5 III will have an advantage in sensor technology.
