The Olympus OM-D E-M5 micro-four-thirds finds its new home in the ocean.

Housings are available now from Nauticam. Subal has announced that they will soon have housings available for this camera.

The micro-four-thirds format cameras enjoy a wide selection of interchangeable lenses. Every underwater photography taste is satisfied from 8mm fisheye lenses up to the excellent Leica 45mm macro lens. Olympus lenses fit Panasonic cameras, and Panasonic lenses fit Olympus cameras.

They are smaller, much less expensive, but enjoy most of the features of DSLR cameras.

While I don't have that model (and let me tell you, I'm going to read about it now!), I do have an Olympus PEN E-PL2 that I LOVE. The micro 4/3 format is fantastic if I do say so myself. I have yet to house it for underwater use since I have so much invested in my current setup, but I am contemplating it. The thing I like most about the micro 4/3 format is the DSLR type feature set, in a much more compact size.

Reef Photo is one of our corporate partners...please feel free to ask questions about this and other products they carry!

And speaking of which...if I have the Panasonic LX5 with Nauticam housing which I do...will any of the OLY lenses fit my camera set up? Thank you!

Olympus lenses fit Panasonic cameras, and Panasonic lenses fit Olympus cameras.
