OM System OM-1 Mark II Mirrorless Camera Body Only

Cross Quad Pixel Autofocus System

The OM-1 Mark II features an advanced Cross Quad Pixel autofocus system, offering 1053 individual focus points distributed across the sensor. This extensive coverage enables the camera to achieve precise focus in various scenarios. The autofocus system intelligently identifies subjects including birds, humans, animals, cars, aeroplanes, and trains, ensuring they remain in sharp focus and allowing for seamless tracking of their movements. By leveraging the Cross Quad Pixel AF algorithm in conjunction with the powerful TruePic X processor, the camera delivers rapid and dependable focusing performance, enhancing overall shooting experiences.

Superior Weather Protection

The OM-1 Mark II boasts an IP53 rating, indicating superior weather protection and resilience against challenging environmental conditions. Its rugged construction ensures the camera remains freezeproof, resistant to dust and splashes, and functional even in temperatures as low as 14°F.

Video Capabilities

DCI & UHD 4K video recording are supported at up to 60p and 10-bit 4:2:0 sampling. Full HD recording is possible at high-speed rates up to 240 fps for slow-motion playback.

Vertical video is now available, opening up more compositional options when shooting and saving you time in post-production.

Live ND

This feature supports up to ND128 and digitally replicates the impact of an optical neutral density filter. It enables users to generate slow shutter speed effects in their images. Through Live ND, users can observe these effects both through the viewfinder and on the LCD monitor in real-time.
