Product Description
Olympus OM System OM-5 Body Mirrorless Digital Camera
- Compact size - High image quality
- IP53 Weather sealing
- Computational photography features
The new OM-5 is made for people who go the extra mile for the experience, the ones who value the journey beyond the mountain top, and people who want to unplug and relax and enjoy the moment.
The OM-5 is not here to be flashy, steal the show, be in the way of your experience, or even try to be the sole reason for your adventure. It is rather like your favourite pair of boots that lead you onto trails unknown, that bag that always has what you need, or that friend that helps you see the world in a beautifully different way.
This camera is made for those who enjoy photography as a part of their journeys, and use it to share their daily experiences with their people, as a tool to tell their story.
Every journey is a story waiting to be told; a thousand little moments hidden between a beginning and an end. This is for you and your thousand moments. Tell your story with the new OM SYSTEM OM-5. Designed to stay with you but not get in the way of your experience. Chuck it in your favourite bag, or let it dangle unnoticeably on your shoulder until inspiration strikes.
The OM-5 is equipped with a 121-point all cross-type On-chip Phase Detection AF sensor for focusing on various locations across the frame for greater freedom over framing and high-precision focusing. Starry Sky AF delivers high-precision auto-focusing for easy astrophotography, something that was previously considered difficult.
IP53 Protection Class weather sealing
The OM SYSTEM OM-5 is equipped with sealing throughout, delivering IP531 protection class dustproof and splashproof performance with freezeproof protection to -10°C, the same high level of weather resistance as the OM SYSTEM OM-1 flagship model.
Versatile computational photography
Computational photography features allow users to easily capture photos that generally require special equipment or image editing software. The OM SYSTEM OM-5 is packed with convenient, versatile computational photography features that provide further inspiration for creative shooting, such as High Res Shot and Live ND.
High-Res Shot
This model supports Handheld High-Res Shot, which merges multiple images to create approximately 50-megapixel high-resolution images. With this feature, users can enjoy hand-held shooting from nearly any angle while capturing high-resolution images. Merging multiple images not only improves resolution but also minimizes noise. The popular Tripod High-Res Shot is also included in this model.
Live ND
Achieve slow shutter speed effects like those using ND filter up to ND16 (4 shutter speed steps). This feature delivers slow shutter speed effects even on ultra-wide-angle lenses that cannot accommodate an ND filter, and the effects can be viewed before capturing the photo using the viewfinder or on the LCD monitor when LV Simulation is activated.
Pro Capture
Pro Capture begins recording once the shutter button is pressed halfway and records previous frames beginning with the moment when the shutter button is pressed fully, ensuring users never miss moments due to human reaction and camera operation time lag. With high-speed sequential shooting up to 30 fps (AF/AE locked), up to 14 previous frames can be captured.
Focus Stacking
Focus Stacking captures eight shots at different focal positions and automatically generates a single image so users can incorporate background defocusing effects without excessively stopping down the aperture for control over the depth of field that matches the subject. This feature is useful for macro shooting.
Live Composite
With this feature, users can easily capture beautiful, varied shots while watching the image build on the Live View screen, even in situations where exposure control is difficult, such as when shooting a city against a starry sky.
