The OM System OM-3 Kit 12-45mm f/4 PRO, introduced in February 2025, combines the cutting-edge technology of the flagship OM-1 Mark II with the timeless aesthetics of classic Olympus film cameras.
1. OM System OM-3 Camera Body
The OM-3 is positioned as a premium camera for street and travel photography, offering "flagship power in a compact metal body."
Sensor and Processor: Features a 20.4-megapixel Stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and the TruePic X processor. This setup ensures ultra-fast readout speeds and minimal rolling shutter effect.
Creative Dial: Located on the front of the camera, this dial is inspired by the PEN-F. It allows for instant switching between 4 monochrome and 4 color profiles that emulate the aesthetic of various film stocks.
AI Autofocus: The system includes 1053 cross-type phase-detection AF points. AI Subject Detection accurately tracks humans, animals (birds, dogs, cats), and vehicles.
Computational Photography: A dedicated "CP" button provides quick access to:
Live ND (up to ND64): Long exposure effects without physical filters.
Live GND (up to ND8): A digital graduated neutral density filter for balancing skies.
High Res Shot: Captures up to 80MP images (tripod) or 50MP (handheld) in 14-bit RAW.
Stabilization (IBIS): The 5-axis in-body image stabilization provides up to 6.5 stops of compensation (up to 7.5 stops with Sync IS lenses).
Durability: The magnesium alloy body is IP53-rated (dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof down to -10°C).
