OM SYSTEM OM-1: Do the impossible. OM is (re)born. (2024)

Stacked BSI Live MOS Sensor

Our 20MP Stacked BSI Live MOS is a leap forward for image quality. It uses a revolutionary new way of arranging imaging elements to let more light in while boosting low light performance. Your photos will have breathtaking resolution with low noise and rich dynamic range of expression from shadows to highlights.

Low Light Photography

Never sweat shooting indoors or another low light situation again. It features a standard ISO range up to 25,600. When light is hard to come by, you can increase the ISO to 102,400 to capture bright photos in the most challenging environments.

Even Better IBIS

Stop worrying about camera shake even at slow shutter speeds. We’ve spent decades developing the world’s most effective image stabilization system so you can be free from tripods and other stabilizing equipment to shoot spectacular handheld, telephoto and macro shots. You’ll have up to 8 steps of compensation that eliminate camera shake even at slow shutter speeds. Take bright, blur-free photos even in difficult low light settings.

Truepic X

The OM-1 is equipped with our cutting-edge TruePic X image processing chip that works in tandem with the Stacked BSI Live MOS Sensor. The TruePic X delivers blazing start up and writing speeds, exhilarating autofocusing and mind-blowingly fast sequential shooting. Besides speed, this revamped processing chip raises the bar with image quality. Enjoy true-to-life color, unmatched sharpness, and vibrant gradations.

Live ND

Who needs to carry ND filters when your camera has them built-in? The OM-1’s Live ND Mode covers up to ND64 giving you a wide range of effects. Preview slow shutter speed effects in the viewfinder before shooting.

Handheld High Res

Sometimes you just need more resolution than a 20MP image. Now you can capture a 50MP shot at the push of a button. Better still, you won’t need a tripod or other stabilizing equipment. Just hold your camera and shoot. The OM-1 automatically takes 12 shots** and instantly merges them into one high resolution photo with spectacular detail. **Reduced from 16 images vs E-M1 Mark III, E-M1X

Live Comp

Every photographer knows that capturing long exposures is challenging. But Live Composite Mode makes it easier with our in-body image stabilization system. Capturing dramatic shots of traffic tails, fireworks, or painted light can now be taken handheld. The camera takes a series of continuous photos with the same exposure time then combines them all into one shot.

Focus Stacking

Focus Stacking gives your images a whole new artistic dimension by adding a deep focus from the foreground to the background. It’s created when the OM-1 automatically takes a series of shots then stiches them together into one beautifully rendered composite image. Focus Stacking Mode is mostly used in macro photography to add depth and drama to images of insects, spider webs and flowers. You can also use it in landscape photography to convey a strong sense of place.

Expressive HDR

Now your photos will have wider and more expressive dynamic range with outstanding contrast and clarity. You’ll see darker shadows and brighter highlights to create more visually arresting shots.

Starry Sky AF

Capturing the galaxy has never been easier. Our Starry Sky AF Mode features two settings to take brilliant astro. Our Speed Priority setting works in tandem with the OM-1’s powerful built-in image stabilization system so you can shoot night skies and not worry about focus. Our Accuracy Priority setting lets you use a tripod and a telephoto lens to pinpoint specific stars with incredible precision. One mode. Two settings. And endless starry photos.

Anti-Flicker

Take brighter indoor shots. Anti-Flicker Mode compensates for artificial light by automatically activating the shutter at peak brightness to smooth exposure and color difference between frames.

Silent Shooting

Sometimes silence is best. This handy mode shuts off all shutter and electronic sounds — perfect for when you need quiet in discrete settings.

Fast 120fps EVF

See the world as it really is through our Electronic Viewfinder. It works with Live View so you can see images in real time and at 120fps gives you a clear view in low light or even in the dark. Nearly 6 million dots offer spectacular resolution while a display delay of a barely perceptible 0.005 seconds keeps pace with the fastest moving subjects.

1,053 Point All Cross Quad Pixel AF

The more autofocus tracking points, the better. That’s why the OM-1 has 1,053 point all Cross Quad Pixel AF for high-precision focusing. Every point is cross-type, enabling detection of vertical and horizontal lines for unmatched accuracy. It’s advanced autofocusing technology that ensures you’ll capture it all, anytime, anywhere.

120fps Burst Raw, 50fps AF/AE Tracking

When you’re in a shooting situation and need lots of speed to capture a quick moving subject or split-second action, count on the OM-1. Using the silent electronic shutter you’ll be able to take a burst of 120fps in RAW. In AF/AE Tracking, you can take a burst of 50fps without distracting blackouts or display lags. Always know exactly what you’re shooting.

Vastly Improved Face Detection

When you’re shooting portraits, faces are everything. Our newly revamped Advanced Face Detection AF offers greater precision, tracking and response to help you take portraits to a whole new level of beautiful.

Revamped AI Detection AF

Concentrate on framing your shot instead of focusing. The OM-1 is able to detect and lock on certain subjects all by itself. It’s called AI Detection AF. The camera identifies subjects like a car, plane, train, dog or a bird — you choose the mode — and it automatically pinpoints, then focuses. All you have to do is compose your shot and let the camera do the rest.

120fps Pro Capture

Capturing action that lasts a fraction of a second is nearly impossible. But not with our Pro Capture Mode. When you press the shutter button down halfway, it begins buffering a running series of photos at 120fps. When you see the moment you want, fully press the shutter and the camera saves that moment plus the buffered shots. Never miss a shot again because of a slow reaction.

Dedicated AF Button

When you’re busy composing, focusing, and shooting switching between manual and autofocus slows you down. That’s why we added a dedicated AF button. It’s right by the AEL button so you’ll always be able to find it quickly.

IP53 – Dustproof and Splashproof

You’re on a shoot and suddenly it starts pouring. Or you’re working in a desert and a furious wind blows sand everywhere. Maybe you’re taking snowboarding photos and the temperature is below freezing. The OM-1 handles all of it. You don’t even need to carry protective gear like rain jackets. A sophisticated system of seals keeps the weather out, so you can work at your best without needing to worry about your camera.

Say No To Dust

Shooting in dusty, dirty environments is always a challenge. The OM-1 makes it easy. Our Supersonic Wave Filter keeps the sensor clean so your images are free from unwanted artifacts. It oscillates 30,000 times a second to instantly shake dust and dirt off the sensor to keep your images spotless.

Shutter Bug

The OM-1 comes with one of the industry’s most durable shutter units. It’s been tested to be reliable for 400,000 actuations. That means you’ll get a long shutter life you can count on to perform perfectly.

New BLX-1 Battery And On The Go Charging

Work for hours thanks to long battery life. The camera comes with our new high capacity BLX-1 Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery that gives you 510 shots. You can also keep using the camera while the batteries are being recharged so the work doesn’t have to stop. Our battery charger is sold separately and can charge two batteries at once.

Dual UHS-II Card Slots

The OM-1’s TruePic X processor drives 2 UHS-II compatible card slots that deliver breathtaking data transfer speeds.

Updated Menu Interface

Finding the exact function you want is a whole lot easier, especially for first time users. The menu is more intuitive so you save time and shoot more efficiently.

In-Camera Image Rating

This feature helps save time with photo editing. You can mark your shots with one to four stars so you can sort through your images faster in post-production.

OI.Share

Our free smart device app is called OI. Share and it uses Wi-Fi to seamlessly connect to your camera. You can instantly transfer photos and video, upload images to social sites and operate the camera remotely.

Tethered Photography

If you shoot in a studio, you’ll appreciate being able to use OM Capture to connect the OM-1 to a laptop or monitor for instant viewing of your images. Make adjustments on the fly and work with greater productivity.

BLE Mobile Device Connection

BLE stands for Bluetooth Low Energy and it’ll help you conserve your camera’s battery power. It’s a Bluetooth connection that remains in sleep or low energy mode until its needed so your camera’s battery lasts longer.

OM Workspace

The OM-1 isn’t just a camera, it’s a sum of the system. Don’t forget to couple it with our pro-lineup of lenses and essential accessories like battery handgrips and a battery charger.

4K/60P 10bit 4:2:0

Shooting in 4K gives you stunningly detailed and exceptionally vibrant video that would play smoothly on the largest screens. The OM-1 can also capture FHD at the standard 240p that looks beautiful on practically any screen You can also shoot at a high bit rate in a variety of frame sizes including H.264 and H.265.

Ultimate Slow Motion

Slow things down and capture the ultimate in slow motion video. 240 frames per second at full HD is a feat on its own. With the new TruePic X processor, the OM-1 can now get the crack of the bat at a ball game, slow down the tongue of a chameleon, and even capture the flight of a hummingbird.

OM-LOG LUT

Lighting can change quickly especially if you’re working on the fly. Shooting in OM-Log Mode compared to Flat maximizes dynamic range to keep your video looking clean and crisp without losing details in shadow or highlights. A new Look Up Table (LUT) lets you see an image on location that’s close to the color you might want your final image to look like after color grading.
