Product details
The Stacked BSI Sensor is a quantum leap in image quality. The new sensor impresses with spectacular resolution, barely noticeable image noise, vibrant colors, and razor-sharp imaging performance. Whether you are using an OM camera from OM SYSTEM or an Olympus OM-D, PEN, or another compatible model, you will benefit from all the advantages of the Micro Four Thirds (MFT) standard: a compact, lightweight design for greater photographic freedom, as well as top-notch image quality and user-friendliness are just a few of them. Thanks to the new Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and TruePic X, the OM-1 achieves an astonishing 120 frames per second in RAW format. You will never miss an important moment again. Indoor shots or low-light conditions are no longer a problem: the standard ISO sensitivity range of 25,600 to 102,400 (expanded) ensures sharp, clear images. With compensation of up to 8 exposure stops and world-leading image stabilization technology, you can shoot - even at long shutter speeds - without a tripod. No camera can function without a processor. OM SYSTEM uses a state-of-the-art TruePic X processor with lightning-fast processing - allowing you to capture every subject effortlessly. Every shot is a hit. The Quad-Pixel Autofocus features 1,053 cross-type focus points and 100% precise focusing across the entire image area, reliably capturing subjects of all kinds. Shoot a complete film. The OM-1 boasts extensive video features, including high bitrate and multi-frame rate recording, as well as RAW format recording. Work significantly faster. OM SYSTEM has completely revamped its menu to make it even more intuitive. It has never been easier to find the right settings and always take the perfect photo.
