OM Digital Solutions has unveiled its new flagship Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera, the OM System OM-1 Mark II, an Al-powered all-rounder that's the first camera to offer live GND (graduated neutral density) filters.
From the outside, the differences from the OM System OM-1 - the last camera to carry the Olympus branding might be difficult to spot, but under the hood, the OM-1 Mark II offers more than double the buffer size for burst shooting an industry-best 8.5 stops of in-body image stabilisation, improved autofocus performance, and what might be the most exciting new feature on a flagship camera that we've seen in a long time: Al-based GND filters.
While the software and artificial intelligence have seen some welcome upgrades, in terms of core technology this is essentially the same camera at the OM-1. The body is identical except for new rubberised dials for a more tactile, responsive feel, and at its heart is the same stacked 20.4MP sensor and quad core TruePic X processor.
Of course, that means all the other things people loved about the OM-1 - like the 120fps burst shooting and IP53-certified weather sealing - are also present in the new model.
