![]() ![]() OM-1 may be more of a photographer’s tool than video, but nothing is forever. OM System pushes the highest outputs with a 12-bit RAW route via a micro-HDMI port to an outboard recorder. Full HD recording is possible at high-speed rates up to 240fps for slow-motion playback. Video performance is DCI/UHD 4K video recording supported at up to 60p and 10-bit 4:2:0 sampling. The TruePic X processor has a three-times faster performance contributing to better specs for frames per second, topping out at 120 and broader ISO details. OM System has produced another MFT camera to keep its lens customers happy.īut, there are new sides to the camera, including a newly designed 20.4MP sensor. OM System is the investment company that bought Olympus’s name and assets last year but, apparently, the word Olympus is being phased out, so why put it on the first camera post-sale, front and center?Īnyway, the OM-1 used to be the name of a film camera back in the day Olympus made them, so there’s some consistency. The OM System OM-1 is a camera whose appearance is full of contradictions. OM SYSTEM OM-1 – $2,199 (Launched February 15, 2022) Image via OM SYSTEM. So, if this is Panasonic’s last MFT camera, then it’s an incredible video product and potentially a future classic. Other highlights include 300fps, the ability to combine eight images into one with the new computational stabilization ability within Venus, and open gate record with the 4:3 sensor for 5.8K 30p 4:2:0 10-bit and 4.4K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit video-something ARRI cameras do. With a much quicker Venus processor and a CF Express Type B card slot, you’ll get internally 5.7K Apple ProRes 422 HQ 4K in the SD card slot. RED also did this a while ago with their cinema cameras. But, Panasonic has taken this technology further by applying both circuits as a composite. One circuit uses I SO 800 and the other ISO 2000. With the GH6, you get a brand new sensor with a claim of 13+ stops of dynamic range with dual-analog gain circuits with Dynamic Range Boost Mode. ![]() Also, Panasonic has thrown their considerable feature list at this camera, and let’s not forget they were one of the pioneers of the format. You may already have plenty of them and don’t want to sell them, and they are plenty of unique third-party options available by reputable manufacturers-like the set from Voigtländer. Well, first off, there are lenses, and the MFT choice is enormous. Why would you need this MFT fully-featured model when a full-frame camera is always better? But, the full-frame mirrorless format has all but leveled-up that problem. MFT was the format that was an antidote to large DSLRs hung around your neck. There are plenty of people who think this camera is the last hurrah of the Micro Four-Thirds format. Panasonic Lumix GH6 – $2,197.99 (Launched February 21, 2022) Image via Panasonic. RED cameras are now bulletproof, mature products. My first impression was seeing what RED has for around the same money. It also incorporates cooling at the back of the body. However, it has no stabilization this time. It still has the R5’s sensor, but pimps up the performance to a full-frame 8K60 Cinema EOS camera that internally records 12-bit Cinema RAW Light footage.
