What Buyers Say

OM System OM-1 OM-1 Mark II

75 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews

This user switched from the Lumix G9M2 to the OM System OM-1 Mark II for "run and gun" shooting and found it excellent, especially for mountain bike races. They praise its fast sensor readout, highlights exposure mode that improves shadow detail in raw files, and 10-bit video. However, the reviewer notes the lack of a true auto mode and the inability to edit previous forum posts, while also pointing out that custom modes can save configuration changes. The Q&A section contains numerous unanswered questions and a complaint about inaccurate product specs regarding integrated flash and included memory card.

Pros
  • fast sensor readout
  • highlights exposure mode improves shadow detail
  • 10-bit video recording
  • custom modes save configuration changes
  • 2x crop assignable to lens button
Cons
  • no true auto mode
  • cannot edit previous forum posts
  • inaccurate product specs on flash and memory card
