Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus E-M1 III is significantly lighter (145g ) than the Panasonic GH5 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you have to also take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Panasonic GH5 and Olympus E-M1 III have the same Micro Four Thirds lens mount and Four Thirds sized sensors, lenses will not be a differentiator on total size of the system.
Weather Sealing
Both GH5 and E-M1 III have weather sealings in their body, making them resistant to water and dust.
