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.

Stunning detail

The new image processing algorithm maximizes the high-speed processing power of the new TruePic X engine, faithfully capturing birds' feathers and the fur of wild animals. It delivers outstanding detail.

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 dynamic range for expressing a rich range of tones

The latest image processing technologies of the new Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and new TruePic X engine deliver a rich range of expression from shadows to highlights.

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*1 of compensation with the body alone for shots with zero camera shake (8steps*2 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.
