Why Micro Four Thirds?
The whole system is built around compactness: small bodies, small lenses, and yet professional features. The built-in stabilisation of the OM-D series is among the best in the world — shooting handheld at shutter speeds of half a second is no exception.
Same system, new name: OM System continues the OM-D line with models such as the OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II and the OM SYSTEM OM-3. All Micro Four Thirds lenses — including Panasonic's — fit both. And if you are looking for analogue: the classic OM SLRs and compact mju models regularly turn up in our range. Everything is tested for sensor or film transport, shutter, stabilisation and controls.
The most popular Olympus and OM System cameras
The OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II is the current flagship and excels in speed and autofocus performance, while the OM SYSTEM OM-3 is a compact, stylish all-rounder with the same advanced image processing. If you are looking for an entry-level model, the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV is an excellent used choice: light, user-friendly and ideal for discovering the Micro Four Thirds system. For those who want more body with a professional finish, the Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II is still a solid workhorse camera. The stylish PEN-F has a loyal fan base, and on the analogue side the mju compacts and OM SLRs have been doing consistently well for years.
