OM 1 Mark II + 150-400mm

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 150-400mm OLYMPUS lens

With impressive range and versatility, the M.Zuiko ED f/4.5 TC1.25X OLYMPUS OLYMPUS 150-400mm 150-400mm lens is a super-telephoto zoom lens that is characterized by its wide range, built-in teleconverter, and relatively sleek design for portable use. Built for Micro Four Thirds cameras, this zoom offers an equivalent focal length range of 300-800mm, which can be extended further using the built-in 1.25x teleconverter for an effective equivalent focal length of 1000mm. The constant maximum aperture of f/4.5 provides constant illumination throughout the zoom range and is slightly reduced to f/5.6 when the teleconverter is in use.

Complementing the huge zoom range of the 150-400mm OLYMPUS lens is a suitable image stabilization system that compensates for camera shake to deliver crisp photos and videos. This system can also work in conjunction with camera-based stabilisation, via Sync IS, for even more powerful stabilisation to suit work at the extremes of the zoom range. The lens also has a built-in tripod collar for balanced support when shooting from a tripod, and as a PRO lens, it has a weather-sealed design that is resistant to dust, moisture, and freezing for working in inclement conditions.

The super-telephoto zoom is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and provides a focal length range equivalent to 300-800mm.

The built-in 1.25x OLYMPUS teleconverter 150-400mm lens allows you to instantly extend your range to 187.5-500mm (or 375-1000mm equivalent) by simply pressing a toggle switch. Since the teleconverter is integrated within the lens housing, it optically conforms to the lens to improve image performance and also completely maintains the tightness of the lens.

The constant maximum aperture of f/4.5, without the teleconverter in position, offers constant illumination throughout the zoom range. When the 1.25x teleconverter is activated, the maximum aperture is effectively f/5.6.

Optical image stabilization minimizes the appearance of camera shake to suit manual shooting applications and 5-axis Sync IS is also supported to take advantage of the benefits of camera-based sensor-shift IS for even more robust stabilization.

The focus range limiter allows you to restrict the focusing system to ranges of 4.3-19.7', 4.3' to infinity, or 19.7' to infinity for faster focusing performance depending on subject type and distance.

Focus hold buttons are located on the lens barrel for intuitive touch control and quick access to settings.

The L-Fn switch (function) can be used for lens-based activation of certain preset setting modes.

The dustproof, freeze and drip proof design ensures the performance of the 150-400mm OLYMPUS lens in harsh and inclement conditions.

The tripod collar provides well-balanced support when working from a monopod or tripod and allows for quick switching between horizontal and vertical shooting orientations.
