With a stacked 20MP CMOS image sensor, the Olympus OM System OM-1 is a micro four thirds camera that can record video at 4k/60p and 1080/240 frames per second. The 50+ year-old Olympus OM-1 SLR is the ancestor of the modern Olympus OM System OM-1. In a sentimental tribute to the past, its release actually fell on the 50th anniversary of the original SLR's debut.

The new stacked CMOS sensor greatly lessens the impact of rolling shutter and halves read-out times. It is even speedier now that it has an upgraded processor.

When shooting topside, the OM-1's ergonomics are superb. Its button and dial layouts are logical, and its grip is substantial. There are presently three options available for Underwater Housings for the OM System OM-1: the Ikelite OM System OM1 Underwater Housing, Nauticam OM System OM-1 Underwater Housing and the Isotta OM System Om-1 Underwater Housing.

OM Digital Solution is the company that acquired the camera line of business from Olympus and has released their first high-end Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera, the OM-1. The OM-1 is built around the 20MP Stacked CMOS image sensor which is the next generation technology and better than the BSI design. It also utilizes TruePic X Dual Quad Core Processor, Cross Quad Pixel AF and AI Detection, 5-Axis Image Stabilization and tons more features. For video, it can capture DCI/UHD 4K 60p 10-Bit Video Recording. Another improvement is its battery life, it uses BLX-1 battery with a rating of 520 shots using rear screen..
