Camera body and sensor

The Olympus OM-1 Mark II is a compact mirrorless camera built around a 4/3-inch stacked BSI Live MOS sensor with 20.4 effective megapixels. It uses the TruePic X image processor and offers a native ISO range of 200 to 25,600, extendable to 80 and 102,400. The body carries IP53 weather sealing and operates down to -10 degrees Celsius.

Outdoor photographers needing speed and ruggedness

This camera suits photographers who shoot in harsh environments and rely on deep buffer capacity, AI subject detection autofocus and up to 8.5 EV stops of in-body stabilisation. Buyers who want more resolution than 20.4 megapixels or who require a larger sensor format should look at something else.

Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor with 20.4 megapixels

The 4/3-inch stacked BSI sensor is the specification that decides fit. Its readout speed enables the fast sequential shooting, computational features such as Live GND and High Res Shot, and the 8.5-stop stabilisation performance that define this model.

Questions about this item

How does the OM-1 Mark II handle heat and battery drain during all-day shooting?

The IP53 weathersealed body operates down to -10 °C and the TruePic X processor manages power efficiently for extended outdoor sessions.

Which lenses and cards must I already own for this body-only camera to function?

You need Micro Four Thirds lenses and UHS-II SD cards to use the 20.4 MP Stacked BSI sensor and dual card slots.

Will my older Four Thirds lenses work on the OM-1 Mark II with full stabilization?

Four Thirds lenses require an adapter; the 5-axis Sync IS reaches 8.5 EV steps only with compatible M.Zuiko Digital lenses.
