- Retro Design inspired by the film Olympus OM-1 original SLR of 1973
- New line for the OM system, presents a creative color mode dial as in the PEN-F
- He sits between the OM OM-1 and OM-5 system, with a price of £ 1,699 alone (US price / ua to follow)
- Three lenses get the treatment of Mark II; M.Zuiko Digital 17 mm F1.8 II, 25 mm F1.8 II and ED 100-400 mm F5.0-6.3 IS II
OM System has just duplicate its attractive retro with a new camera without OM-3 mirror. It is a surprising version of the film Olympus OM-1 original of SLR of the 1970s, and the closest fans are reaching a restart of the popular 2016 Digital Olympus Pen-F.
With a cost of £ 1,699 only body, or £ 1,999 with the 12-45 mm f4 lens (US prices and Australia to follow), the OM-3 is between the OM-1 II and flagship. The enthusiast of the OM-5 level. It offers characteristics of the OM system that we already know; The same micro Four Thirds stacked and Truepic X processor such as OM-1 II, together with the stabilization of image in the leading body in class with a rating of up to 7.5ev and automatic pixel approach with a-subject detection, Wrapped in a robust IP53 IP53 -L -Welling in the open.
The OM-3 also presents a creative sphere to the PEN-F. Olympus was ahead of the curve with the PEN-F, since now we see the tastes of the Fujifilm X-T50 and Panasonic Lumix S9 capitalizing on interest in custom color profiles with dedicated controls that provide rapid access to a look catalog Personalized
In the OM-3, we obtain a creative dial with four modes; Color profile, monóquero profile, more creative art filters. The color profile has four customizable settings that emulate the film, as well as the monochromatic profile with its four black and white looks.
There is much to like the OM-3. Pack the same power as the most expensive OM-1 II in a more affordable retro body with direct access to key characteristics. This is a camera that fans of the OM system in particular have been waiting and a convincing alternative of Fujifilm.
More than a pretty face
The OM-3 is an stunner that weighs less than 500 GY is smaller than the OM-1 II, but its attraction not only deepens the surface. It is a very robust metal chamber that is dust proof, splash and frozen proof, it also has a well -thought design with direct access to many of its powerful modern characteristics.
There is a new dial for photo options, videos or slow and fast movement, with a slow camera recording up to 60 fps in 4K and up to 120 fps in complete HD. OM System has introduced new film modes with Video Log profiles that maximize the dynamic range of the camera to qualify clips later.
There is also a new button to access the functions of computational photography directly, with the complete set of OM System modes by hand; LIVE ND FILTERS WITH SIX LEVELS OF FORCE FROM ND2 TO ND64, THE FILTER EFFECT GRADUATED INTACTED IN OM-1 II, LIVING COMPOSIT FOR LIGHT PATHS, along with a high-beef shooting mode to increase the resolution of the resolution of Up to 80MP, plus a mode focus stack. These are intelligent characteristics that minimize the accessories you need and the time dedicated to editing on a computer.
As for the price, the OM-3 faces the tastes of the Fujifilm X-T5, despite its lowest pixel count and a smaller sensor size, which will always be a strike for some. However, I cannot think of a faster camera for money: this 120 fps shooting stunter could be the best travel and outdoor chamber, especially for those with an eye for design. Om System also launched the versions of Mark II of three of its lenses together with the camera, all of which add sealed by the climate to the original versions; The M.Zuiko Digital 17 mm F1.8 II, 25 mm F1.8 II and ED 100-400 mm F5.0-6.3 is II. I can see that the 17 mm lens is a charming match with the OM-3 in particular for street photography. We are currently doing a complete OM-3 review, soon.
