The Olympus E-M10 Mark III camera has a 16MP sensor, not 20MP as some reports suggested

The Olympus E-M10 Mark III specifications leaked online. As I already reported, the new MFT model will have 4k video and will be released by the end of the year. The rumors about a 20MP sensor that have been repeated by some websites for months were completely wrong - the E-M10 Mark III will have a 16MP sensor:

The new Olympus E-M10 Mark III camera will be available in black and silver and the price in Japan will be 87,480 yen including tax (around $800). The recently leaked Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 17mm f/1.2 PRO lens will probably be announced together with the E-M10 III camera.
