High image quality that goes beyond expectations of the sensor size
The new 20M Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and new TruePic X engine make the most of high-resolution M.Zuiko Digital lens performance, delivering stunning detail and low noise. The OM SYSTEM OM-1 exceeds the level of image quality that the sensor size would imply, delivering results approaching those of a full-frame camera. It is the optimal camera, offering both System portability and high image quality.

Standard ISO sensitivity range of ISO 25600
The highly noise efficient new 20M Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and new TruePic X engine, which has several hundred times more image processing capabilities than a general-purpose processor (3times more than TruePic IX), combine to reduce noise that tends to occur at high sensitivities , and achieves a standard high ISO sensitivity range of ISO 25600. High sensitivity settings are available up to ISO 102400. Capture subjects at fast shutter speeds even in environments that are not bright enough, such as at indoor sporting venues.

High-performance IS for hand-held shooting even at slow shutter speeds
Carrying over the tradition of OM SYSTEM strengths. High-performance IS delivers up to 7 steps of compensation with the body alone for shots with zero camera shake (8 steps with sync IS). Enjoy relaxed capturing of images that can only be shot with a slow shutter speed, all without needing a tripod. The OM-1 is equipped with Handheld Assist, a feature that helps framing when shooting at slow shutter speeds.

High Res Shot delivers amazing high definition in a compact package
Tripod High Res Shot creates 80M high-definition shots by compositing 8 images. Handheld High Res Shot is also included, for creating 50M high-definition shots by compositing 12 images. The new TruePic X engine significantly reduces processing time (Handheld High Res Shot: 5-second composite), meeting the needs of users who demand high-definition imaging for landscape shots. A Movie button is set to High Res setting in defalut configuration to allow quick access to Handheld High Res Shot. High Res Shot can also composite multiple images to reduce noise by approximately two steps. High Res Shot delivers stunning image quality and low noise. Additionally, High Res shooting features (Tripod High Res) can be used in combination with interval shooting, which enable creating high-resolution Time Lapse Movie videos easier than ever.

1,053-point, all cross-type 100% coverage with new AF
The new Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor uses a Cross Quad Pixel AF mode. A quad division photo diode configuration enables acquisition of On-chip Phase Detection information in both vertical and horizontal directions. This design has made it possible to focus on various patterns of subjects across all pixels and the entire shooting range. AF is available for the subject no matter where it is in the frame. On-chip Phase Detection is available across every pixel, dramatically improving detection precision. In addition, the high-speed calculation capabilities of the new TruePic X engine and the new AF algorithm make it possible to accurately track and continue focusing on the subject. High-precision focusing is possible even in darker scenes and on low-contrast subjects, delivering an AF low light limit of -8 EV. In line with multi-point AF Target and, in addition to the full frame, Single (1 × 1), Small Area (3 × 3), Medium Area (9 × 7), Large Area (15 × 11), Cross Area (9, 7), and custom settings, the AF area can be set to match subject size and movement. The AF Target position can be quickly moved using the multi selector. These controls mean you'll never lose a subject.

Further advanced Intelligent Subject Detection: AI Detection AF
AI Detection AF was developed using deep learning technology. Neural network circuits in the new TruePic X engine perform calculations at higher speeds to recognize subjects with greater precision. In addition to racing cars, motorcycles, airplanes, helicopters, trains, steam locomotives, and birds available on the E-M1X , animals (dogs and cats) have been added to detectable subjects. Not only has the detection rate been improved thanks to AI detection, the high-speed calculation of the new TruePic X engine can detect subject movement in real time and continue tracking subjects moving within the frame without losing them.

Practical IP53 compatibility and a dustproof and splashproof design
Our dustproof and splashproof design is trusted by photographers from around the world, so we made it even better. The OM-1 features IP53 dustproof and waterproof performance. The tough, lightweight magnesium alloy body features sealing in all the right places, giving it reliability that goes further than ever with dustproof and splashproof performance, for reliability in more practical use situations. It is also freezeproof to -10°C for continued operation even at low temperatures. This construction makes the camera usable in the most punishing environments.

High-definition 4K, 60p video
This model is capable of 4K, 60p videos, for achieving smooth, high-definition imaging expressions. In FHD, up to 240p high-speed movie shooting is also possible. Thanks to the high-performance image stabilization and compact system design including the lens, this model is perfect for mobile creative video production for everyone from professional videographers and Vloggers.
