OM 1 Mark II + 12-45mm

Features of the OM-1 Mark II

The first flagship to bear the OM SYSTEM name, the OM-1 Mark II, is a revamped second version of the proven Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera. Its stacked 20MP BSI Live MOS sensor and TruePic X processor deliver high-quality captures, fast autofocus, and excellent low-light performance with a native ISO range of 200 to 102,400. Primed to give you a closer look at your subject thanks to the Micro Four Thirds system's crop factor, the OM-1 Mark II excels in wildlife and nature photography. When you're shooting handheld, the sharpness of your images is greatly improved thanks to the built-in 5-axis image stabilization. Together, the OM-1 Mark II provides users with mobility, precision, and a reliable camera for capturing images and videos.

Among the notable improvements of the OM-1 Mark II are human-enhanced AI subject detection, live graduated ND filters, updated menu settings, 14-bit raw output, and rubber dials.

Four-pixel crossover AF
The OM-1 Mark II's comprehensive Cross Quad Pixel autofocus system provides 1053 individual focus points, allowing the camera to capture focus almost anywhere on the sensor. With this design, the camera automatically detects subjects such as birds, humans, animals, cars, planes, and trains to keep them in focus and track their movements. This Cross Quad Pixel AF algorithm combined with the TruePic X processor promises reliable, high-speed focusing performance.

Notable Mark II Updates

• 20% increase in image stabilization and 8.5 EV stops compensation
• Rubber spheres for a more tactile feel
• The menu button can be programmed to remove, so you don't have to remove your left hand from the lens.
• Triple the number of tones in your images with 14-bit raw output
• Improved sequential shooting with no blackouts
• Vertical Video Support
• GND8 and ND128 Live Filtering
• Enhanced Human AI Subject Detection AF

Designed for the elements
IP53 rated, the OM-1 Mark II offers superior weather protection and withstands some of the harshest conditions in the field. Its rugged construction makes the camera cold, dustproof, and splash resistant, and can operate in temperatures as low as 14°F.

Video Capabilities
DCI and UHD 4K video recording supports up to 60p and 4:2:0 10-bit sampling. Full HD recording is possible at high-speed speeds of up to 240fps for slow-motion playback.

Vertical video is now available, which opens up more compositing options when shooting and saves you time in post-production.

ND Live
This feature, which supports up to ND128, digitally simulates the effects of a neutral density optical filter so you can create slow shutter speed effects in your images. With Live ND, you can see the effects through the viewfinder and on the LCD monitor.

Useful Features

• 5.76m-dot OLED electronic viewfinder for crisp eye-level shooting
• 3.0" rotating 1.62m dot LCD touchscreen to enable an incredible array of viewing capabilities during capture
• Dual UHS-II SD card slots for extended shooting situations
• Cumulative focus up to 15 shots
• Focus bracketing up to 999 shots

Features OLYMPUS M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12-45mm F4 PRO lens

The lightest and most compact standard zoom lens on the market*. This lens will allow you to achieve the beautiful soft blur effects you want. The M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm F4 PRO, despite being so light and compact, offers high resolution throughout the zoom range and excellent macro performance. The M.Zuiko Pro series of lenses is known for its high optical quality and dust and splash resistance. The M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm F4 PRO has everything you need.

Covering a useful and familiar range with a lean form factor, the OLYMPUS M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm f/4 PRO is a 24-90mm equivalent zoom for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Distinguished by its constant f/4 maximum aperture, this lens strikes a balance between a brilliant design and a highly compact design to suit its use in everyday situations. Many specialized elements are incorporated into the optical design, helping to suppress spherical aberrations, color fringing, and distortion to produce sharp, color-accurate images. Also featured is a ZERO coating, which controls flare and ghosting to improve contrast when working in bright, backlit conditions. Complementing the optics is an autofocus system compatible with film and still photos, which achieves fast, smooth and quiet focusing performance, and a maximum magnification of 1:2 throughout the zoom range to suit working with close-up subjects. In addition, the lens is weather-sealed to allow it to be used in harsh weather conditions.

• The standard wide-angle to portrait-length zoom lens is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and provides an equivalent focal length range of 24-90mm.

• The constant maximum aperture of f/4 allows for consistent performance throughout the zoom range and helps achieve a sleek and lightweight physical design.

• The lens construction integrates two aspherical elements, a DSA (Dual Super Aspherical) element, two extra-low dispersion elements, a Super HR (high refractive index) element, and two HR elements into its design to minimize aberrations, distortion, and color. fringing throughout the zoom range while contributing to overall image sharpness, clarity and color accuracy.

• A ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating has been applied to individual elements to minimise lens flare and ghosting to improve contrast and colour fidelity when working in bright lighting conditions.

• The Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system benefits both photo and video applications due to its smooth, quiet, and fast performance.

• The minimum focusing distance of 4.7" at the wide end and 9.1" at the telephoto ends with an impressive 1:2 maximum magnification ratio to suit working with close-up subjects.

• The dust-proof, freeze-proof, and drip-proof design ensures the performance of the lens in inclement and harsh conditions.

• The rounded, seven-blade diaphragm produces smooth bokeh quality.
