OM System OM-5 - Powerful Performance in a Portable Package

The OM-System OM-5 is the perfect mirrorless camera for you if you don't mind going that extra mile in search of adventure, and of course, stunning photographs and videos. The beautiful image quality created by this camera stems from the 20.4MP Micro Four Thirds image sensor and TruePic IX Processing engine, a pairing that delivers low-noise images throughout the broad 200-25600 ISO range, and even 4K30p video recording.

Built-in 5-Axis IS

This camera is equipped to tackle a range of subjects in different, often tricky conditions, thanks to a fast and incredible accurate AF system, as well as highly-effective 5-Axis Image Stabilisation - this IS system assures your photos and videos are sharp and blur-free, even when captured in dim conditions.

Lightweight and Weather-Sealed

The OM-System OM-5 is portable and lightweight, weighing in at around 366 grams as is, and roughly half a kilo when paired with select portable compatible lenses. This compact stature makes it the perfect partner for long days of adventuring and hiking, and just as is required for working in these conditions, this camera is as tough as they come. The OM-5 includes a class-leading weather-sealed build, so you can travel wherever necessary to get the best content, and not fear your camera will be damaged.

Frame your images, in your way

A versatile image maker, the OM-System OM-5 includes both a high-resolution 2.36-million dot EVF and a 3-inch tilting and touch-sensitive LCD screen to frame your photos and videos. The EVF is great for taking the traditional approach to framing your images and is ideal in tricky lighting conditions, while the tilting LCD screen helps when framing images from tricky angles, and even for capturing well-framed POV shots - it is the best option for taking selfies and vlogging. The touch-sensitivity of this screen is great for navigating menus and it also introduces a new Starry Sky AF; this allows you to simply touch the screen to focus on the sky, which is often a tricky task.

Video-friendly features

As well as the high-resolution 4K30p video recording, the OM-5 offers a range of features that will appeal to vloggers and video enthusiasts of every level. This includes Full HD video recording at 120p, which is great for producing eye-catching slow-motion videos, and a new Vertical Video function that makes for easy upload to various social media platforms. This camera can be charged via USB and this connection also makes it possible to utilise the new webcam mode. There's no need to rush your take with the OM-5, as this camera includes unlimited recording times, while a brand new OM-Log400 codec is included, a filmmaking-ready picture profile that can capture every aspect of detail that nature has to offer.

Advanced shooting functions

The OM-System OM-5 is not just crammed with video-friendly functions but also a range of features that landscape and travel photographers and even bloggers will enjoy. This includes Live ND filters that are ideal for introducing motion into your photography, particularly when paired with the camera's bulb setting, and a 50MP high-res handheld shot mode, which helps to produce stunning large-format prints. This camera is even capable of framing any wildlife that you may encounter on your treks into the wilderness, no matter how fast they may be travelling, thanks to the advanced subject tracking and up to 30 frames per second continuous shooting (10FPS with AF tracking).
