Olympus Pen epl-3 video vs. Omd EM5

[ptkeam]

<p>Hi,<br>

So I'm using an OMD EM5 body to shoot video. I'd like to have a second body for a backup and also to have a second camera recording on a tripod so I can edit in shots from both cameras. <br>

The specs. of the video from the epl-3 look pretty similar. I'm wondering of these two different bodies would produce files that would mesh well in an edited final product.<br>

Thanks</p>

<p>It's a totally different sensor. I bet that an epl6 (available pretty cheap these days) would be way closer.</p>

<p>The best backup body is usually an identical body to the main body.</p>

<p>Although different bodies even from different manufacturers can produce comparable results. You would need to test them side-by-side to know for sure.</p>
