Olympus OM System OM-1 Digital Camera with 12-40mm PRO II Lens Now with £175 CASH BACK

The Olympus OM-1 with 12-40mm F2.8 Pro II Lens is the OM System flagship Mirrorless camera that features a compact lightweight, weather sealed design for superior mobility along with high image quality and super-fast autofocus.

The OM-1 includes a new 20MP Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and the latest TruePic X image processor to give amazing image resolution, fast AF (up to 120fps when using Pro Capture), high ISO sensitivity and dynamic range. Also included is a high performance image stabilisation that delivers up to 8 steps of compensation with 5-axis sync IS. Creative video functions include 4K 60p for smooth, high-definition movies and high-speed video with Full HD at a maximum 240p.

The OM-1 features a high-end compact, lightweight body unique to OM SYSTEM, including the new 20 Megapixel Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor, and the latest TruePic X image processor, which is three times faster than previous models. The OM SYSTEM OM-1 delivers high image quality that goes beyond the expectations of the sensor size. Not only does it take full advantage of high-resolution M.Zuiko Digital lens performance, delivering high resolution, but new noise processing technology increases the maximum normal sensitivity to ISO 25600, and an expanded maximum sensitivity to ISO 102400. Furthermore, the dynamic range has been improved thanks to the latest image processing technology. These improvements deliver a richer range of tonal expressions than ever before, from shadows to highlights.

The OM SYSTEM advantage of high-performance image stabilisation delivers up to 8.0 steps of compensation with 5-axis sync IS, and up to 7 steps with the body alone. The new Handheld Assist feature makes it easy to capture slow shutter speed effects that previously required a tripod.

A quad-division photo diode configuration allows for On-chip Phase Detection in both vertical and horizontal directions. 1,053-point, all cross-type, the world’s first Cross Quad Pixel AF is utilized to focus on various patterns of subjects across all pixels and the entire shooting range. The high-speed calculation capabilities of the new TruePic X processor and the new AF algorithm enable high-speed, high precision focusing on the subject no matter where it is in the frame. Furthermore, this model is equipped with AI Detection AF.
In addition to greater than ever high-speed, high-precision subject recognition and tracking, this model can recognize formula cars, motorcycles, airplanes, helicopters, trains, and birds, as well as animals (dogs and cats). In addition to C-AF, this functionality is also supported with S-AF for shooting a wider variety of scenes. The detection precision, tracking performance, and responsiveness of Face Priority/Eye Priority AF have been improved significantly. There have also been exponential improvements to sequential shooting performance, reaching up to 50 fps blackout free AF/AE tracking at approximately 20.37 Megapixel, and up to 120 fps AF/AE locked ultra-high-speed sequential shooting. When using Pro Capture, which is designed for capturing shots that are not possible during normal shooting, you can enjoy sequential shooting up to 50 fps (AF/AE tracking) and up to 120 fps (AF/AE locked).

The dustproof and splashproof performance is achieved by including sealing materials at the appropriate locations on the tough, lightweight magnesium alloy body, ensuring IP53 dustproof and splashproof protection class and freezeproof performance to -10°C.
