Camera OverviewOM System OM-1 Mark II

The OM System OM-1 Mark II is a flagship Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera built around a 20MP sensor powered by the TruePic X image processor. It covers a native ISO range of 80 to 102400, giving shooters flexibility across a wide variety of lighting conditions. The autofocus system combines Phase Detection, Contrast Detection, AI-Based Subject Tracking, and Eye Detection AF across 1053 focus points — a comprehensive setup suited to fast-moving subjects in wildlife and sports photography.

Burst shooting reaches up to 50fps, making it a capable tool for capturing action sequences. Video capabilities include 4K recording across frame rates from 24fps up to 120fps, with 10-bit color output available via external recording and 8-bit internal, plus a color profile selection that includes OM-Log400, HLG, Flat, Natural, and Vivid. The 5-Axis In-Body Image Stabilization, combined with Digital IS, provides additional steadiness for both photo and video work.

Built from magnesium alloy and carrying a Weather Sealed rating, the body weighs 599g and measures 135 x 92 x 73mm. Connectivity is thorough, covering Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB-C, Micro HDMI output, and both 3.5mm microphone and headphone jacks. The 3.0-inch fully articulated 1,620,000-dot LCD touchscreen and a high-resolution 5,760,000-dot OLED EVF running at 120Hz round out a well-specified package.

Key FeaturesOM System OM-1 Mark II

20MP MFT BSI-CMOS Sensor: The Micro Four Thirds BSI-CMOS sensor delivers a 2x crop factor, making it particularly effective when paired with longer telephoto lenses for wildlife and sports shooting.

1053-Point Phase Detection AF: Dense autofocus coverage across the frame, combined with AI-based subject tracking and Eye Detection AF, enables reliable acquisition of fast-moving subjects.

50fps Burst Shooting: High-speed continuous shooting at up to 50fps with electronic shutter gives photographers a strong chance of capturing peak action moments in sequences.

8.5-Stop In-Body Stabilization: OM System claims up to 8.5 stops of stabilization with compatible lenses via Sync IS, making handheld shooting viable with long lenses and in low light.

4K Video Up to 60fps Internal: Records 4K video internally at up to 60fps; higher frame rates at lower resolutions are also available for slow-motion workflows.

10-Bit External Video Output: 10-bit color via external recording paired with OM-Log400 and HLG profiles provides greater latitude for color grading in post-production.
