Lens kit with "M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12-40mm F2.8 PRO II"
High image quality produced by back-illuminated stacked Live MOS sensor and image processing engine "TruePic X" The "OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II" has a "20.37 effective megapixel back-illuminated stacked Live MOS The combination of the OM-ZUIKO DIGITAL OM-Z sensor with the latest TruePic X image processing engine and the acclaimed high-resolution M.ZUIKO DIGITAL lens defies conventional sensor size to deliver the highest image quality in the history of OM SYSTEM cameras. The AWB algorithm has been improved to ensure clear color reproduction even in difficult conditions such as mixed light, allowing you to capture images with appropriate color tone under a variety of light sources. The camera also features powerful in-body 5-axis image stabilization, providing the world's highest level of compensation effectiveness in a single body, up to 8.5 stops. The 5-axis sync image stabilization also achieves up to 8.5 stops, further expanding the scope of handheld shooting while taking advantage of mobility. The world's first "Live GND" function allows you to control the effect of half ND filters while checking the GND step number and type. The world's first "Live GND (Gradient ND)" function uses computational photography to recreate the effect of half ND filters, which control light and dark areas to create impressive images. This function allows you to check the filter step number (GND2, GND4, GND8) and filter type (Soft, Medium, HardHard) in real time while viewing the EVF or rear monitor, and adjust the position and angle of the filter effect to achieve the desired result. Since no filter is required, you can utilize the effects of a half ND filter in your images even when using lenses without filter threads, such as ultra-wide-angle lenses, or when you don't have a filter on hand, greatly expanding the range of expression in landscape photography and other situations. The popular "Live ND" function has expanded the upper limit from ND64 equivalent to ND128 equivalent, allowing for scenes requiring a larger number of steps. The camera also features the approximately 50-megapixel "Handheld High Res. Shot" and the approximately 80-megapixel "Tripod High Res. Shot" functions, which combine multiple images to produce high-resolution images that exceed the sensor size while reducing noise equivalent to approximately two stops of ISO sensitivity. Both modes enable 14-bit RAW recording during High Res. Shot. Furthermore, convenient computational photography features such as "Live Composite," which brightens only the brightly colored areas, and "Depth Stacking," which controls the depth of field, make it suitable for a variety of shooting scenarios. "AI Subject Recognition AF" has been further improved, now supporting people recognition. Developed using deep learning technology, "AI Subject Recognition AF" now recognizes people in addition to formula cars, motorcycles, airplanes, helicopters, trains, birds, and animals (dogs and cats). This new feature integrates and further develops the acclaimed Face Priority and Eye Priority AF, improving autofocus capabilities so that autofocus works even when people are facing sideways or backwards, or when their eyes or mouths are obscured. The high-speed calculations of the "TruePic X" image processing engine allow "AI Subject Recognition AF" to detect subject movement in real time and track moving subjects across the frame without missing them, even tracking driver helmets and the eyes of birds and animals, which are difficult to track with human control. It can detect up to eight subjects, including people and animals, and allows you to select which target to track, providing greater freedom in composition. Operation has also been further improved, with quick settings for detected subjects on the Super Control Panel, allowing for stress-free shooting. The additional memory significantly increases the number of continuous shots possible and improves high-speed shooting capabilities. Pro Capture starts recording with the first release and records from the moment the shutter is released, ensuring you capture moments missed due to human reaction time lag. High-speed continuous shooting at up to approximately 120 frames per second with AF/AE fixed and approximately 50 frames per second with AF/AE tracking ensures you can capture fast-moving moments. The OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II's additional buffer memory increases the number of frames that can be taken retroactively in Pro Capture to approximately 99 (compared to 70 frames on the OM SYSTEM OM-1). Similarly, the number of continuous shots at approximately 120 frames per second has been increased to approximately 219 in JPEG and approximately 213 in RAW (compared to approximately 92 for the OM SYSTEM OM-1), significantly improving high-speed shooting capabilities.
Highly dust-, splash-, and freeze-resistant design to handle harsh shooting conditions, and equipped with a reliable dust reduction system. The OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II has a robust, lightweight magnesium alloy body with sealing members effectively positioned in appropriate places, achieving a highly dust- and splash-resistant design (dust- and splash-resistant protection rating IP53). It is also freeze-resistant to -1010°C, allowing reliable operation even in harsh environments. The 5.76 million-dot organic EL (OLED) viewfinder offers high resolution, easy-to-view viewfinder magnification of 0.83x, a display lag of 0.005 seconds, and a high-speed display of 120 frames per second, approaching the clarity of an optical viewfinder while also offering the benefits of an electronic viewfinder, such as being able to distinguish the subject even in dark scenes and getting the image before releasing the shutter. It also features an anti-fog coating for clear visibility, even when shooting in the rain. The camera also features a renowned dust reduction system that dramatically reduces dust buildup on the image sensor during lens changes and from internal mechanical components, further supporting the camera's high reliability. Other features include right-handed menu operation. The trash can button can be assigned as a menu button, improving operability when using telephoto lenses, etc. New settings of 12.5 frames per second and 16.7 frames per second are now available for AF/AE tracking high-speed continuous shooting (SH2). The minimum shutter speed for continuous shooting at 25 frames per second or less has been increased to 1/160 second. The elastomer coating on the dial surface improves grip. Compatible with USB Video Class and Audio Class, and can be used as a webcam when connected to a PC. Supports vertical video, which is convenient for social media.
