OM SYSTEM OLYMPUS OM-1 WITH 12-40MM F/2.8 PRO II LENS KIT SUMMARY
Whether you’re new to micro four thirds or upgrading from a previous model, this kit is hard to beat, pairing the flagship OM System Olympus OM-1 With 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens Kit. Both camera body and lens were released simultaneously after significant redevelopment by OM System. These include upgrading every key technical feature from the Sensor and image processor, through to AF algorithms and the optical formula in the M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens (available as a standalone MFT lens).
This pair is adept for both photo and video content creation, combining lightweight robust build-quality which achieves IP53 weather resistance, to world first features, such as the new Cross Quad Pixel AF Phase detection. The results are spectacular with blistering AF performance, up to x60 faster subject recognition, better tracking with full AF/AE lock at 50fps and professional video capabilities. The lens offers an equivalent focal width of 24-80mｍ in full frame format, perfect for any number of subjects including portraits, street, landscape, video and as a walk-around lens. Movies can be shot at 4K60p / FHD 240p with OM Log 10 Bit 4:2:2 Internal and there are plenty of options for advanced users to capture pro audio, do colour grading and control the camera remotely.
HIGH RES SHOT
Processing time has been significantly reduced with handheld High-Res Shot taking just 5 seconds to merge 50 megapixels. This can be used for any stationary subjects including landscape photos because of the camera’s ability to capture high-resolution 50 Megapixel images by merging multiple images.
Tripod High Res Shot creates ultra-high-resolution images of approximately 80 Megapixels. Composite processing technology reduces noise by approximately 2-stops for an amazingly high pixel count with low noise, clean results. A dedicated button has been added the Olympus OM-1 camera body to enable you to quickly switch between normal shooting and Handheld High-Res Shot/Tripod High Res Shot.
HIGH SPEED SHOOTING AND ENHANCED AF PERFORMANCE
The OM-1 includes high-speed performance with newly developed autofocus for dramatically improved performance with a maximum 50fps sequential shooting using AF/AE tracking. A quad-division photo diode configuration allows On-chip Phase Detection in both vertical and horizontal directions. 1,053-points which are all cross-type makes the world’s first Cross Quad Pixel AF which is utilised to focus on various patterns of subjects across all pixels and the entire shooting range.
The new TruePic X processor’s high speed calculations combined with new AF algorithms enable high-speed, high precision focusing on your subject, no matter where it is in the frame. Furthermore, this model is equipped with AI Detection AF, which was developed using deep learning technology. In addition to being faster than ever, with high-precision subject recognition and tracking, this flagship camera can recognise 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 for anyone shooting human subjects including portraits, sports, action and weddings.
There have also been exponential improvements to sequential shooting performance, with the Olympus OM-1 reaching up to 50fps blackout free with full AF/AE tracking at the full 20.37 Megapixel resolution. You can also shoot high frame rates up to 120 fps with AF/AE locked for unmatched ultra-high-speed shooting.
Pro Capture is designed for capturing shots that are not possible during normal shooting, facilitating sequential shooting up to 50 fps (AF/AE tracking) and up to 120 fps (AF/AE locked).
