Features of the om system OM-1 Mark II Camera

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 of the 12-40mm f2.8 lens

A svelte lens designed for close-up photography, the OLYMPUS M.Zuiko Digital ED 30mm f/3.5 macro lens is a 60mm equivalent prime lens for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Characterized by its maximum magnification of 1.25x greater than the actual size, this lens also has a minimum focusing distance of 3.7", for a minimum working distance of 0.6", to greatly benefit working with close-up subjects with great detail. This close-focus capability has a simple yet effective optical design that incorporates an aspherical element, a dual super aspherical element (DSA), and an extra-low dispersion aspherical element (EDA) to minimize spherical and chromatic aberrations to improve sharpness and clarity. .

• A Film and Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system is also used to achieve high-speed focusing performance that is equally quiet and accurate to benefit both photographers and filmmakers. Manual focus control is also available and the lens supports focus bracketing modes from selected OM-D and PEN cameras to improve depth of field when working with macro subjects.
• The Prime 30mm macro lens is designed for Micro Four Thirds system cameras and offers a focal length equivalent to 60mm.
• The optical design incorporates a DSA element, an aspherical element, and an EDA element, which help reduce spherical aberrations, chromatic aberrations, and color fringing to improve sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy.
• Well suited for macro photography, this lens offers a maximum magnification of 1.25x superior -to-life size along with a minimum focusing distance of 3.7" and a minimum working distance of 0.6".
• An MSC autofocus system provides fast, quiet and accurate focusing performance to benefit both still taking and filming.
• Supports the focus bracketing function of select PEN and OM-D cameras to extend the effective depth of field when working with macro subjects.
• Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to pleasing bokeh quality
