OM System OM-1 Body

Die OM-1 lässt erkennen, dass man sich bei OM Digital Solutions auf traditionelle Olympus-Werte besonnen hat: Auf den MFT-Boliden OM-D E-M1X mit integriertem Batteriegriff folgt als neues Topmodell eine leichte, handliche Systemkamera, die mit robuster Bauweise auch professionelle Ansprüche befriedigen will.

The OM-1 proves there’s not just life left in the Micro Four Thirds format, but also for a brand we thought would never grace a new camera body again. The OM-1 refines the excellent controls and ergonomics of the EM1 Mark III, improves the already leading weather-proofing and built-in stabilisation, and, thanks to a new stacked sensor and image processor, accelerates almost every function while boosting autofocus capabilities, image quality and video frame rates. The photo resolution may remain the same as earlier models, but the claimed improvements in noise levels and dynamic range, as well as focusing speed and object detection, could be sufficient for fans of the system who were already satisfied by 20 Megapixels; plus videographers now get 4k up to 60p and 1080 up to 240p. If it all works as promised, it could be very tempting for outdoor and wildlife photographers. Check out my full preview below and come back soon for my final review!
