OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II Mirrorless Camera
Compact, powerful, and built for versatility, the OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II stands as the flagship of the Micro Four Thirds lineup, delivering a refined balance of speed, precision, and portability for both photographers and videographers. Built around a 20MP stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and the advanced TruePic X processor, it offers impressive image quality, fast performance, and excellent low-light capability with a native ISO range of 200 to 102,400. The Micro Four Thirds format also provides an effective telephoto reach advantage, making it especially well-suited for wildlife and nature photography, while its advanced in-body image stabilization ensures sharp handheld results in a wide range of conditions.
Sensor and Processor
The combination of a stacked sensor design and TruePic X processor enables fast readout speeds, reduced rolling shutter, and responsive overall performance. This setup is optimized for both high-speed still shooting and advanced video recording, while maintaining strong image quality across varying lighting conditions.
Image Stabilization
A 5-axis in-body image stabilization system provides up to 8.5 stops of compensation, helping to reduce camera shake and improve sharpness when shooting handheld, especially in low-light or telephoto scenarios.
Autofocus System
The Cross Quad Pixel autofocus system features 1053 phase-detection points with near full-sensor coverage. Enhanced AI subject detection allows the camera to recognize and track subjects such as humans, birds, animals, and vehicles, ensuring fast, accurate, and reliable focusing performance.

OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens
Delivering professional-grade performance in a compact and durable design, the OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II is a versatile standard zoom built for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Covering a 24-80mm equivalent focal length range, it moves seamlessly from wide-angle to portrait-length shooting, making it an ideal everyday lens for a variety of applications. The constant f/2.8 aperture provides consistent low-light performance and depth of field control, while maintaining a portable, travel-friendly form factor.
Engineered for clarity and precision, the lens features an advanced optical design that incorporates a range of specialized elements to minimize chromatic aberrations, distortion, and color fringing throughout the zoom range. The result is sharp, high-resolution imagery with accurate color reproduction. A ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating helps reduce flare and ghosting for improved contrast in strong or backlit conditions, while a protective fluorine coating repels dust, moisture, grease, and dirt for easier maintenance in the field.
Designed for both stills and video, the Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system delivers fast, smooth, and nearly silent focusing performance. A minimum focusing distance of just 7.9″ enables close-up shooting versatility, while the robust weather-sealed construction ensures reliable operation in harsh and unpredictable environments.
