OM System OM-1 Mark II Camera with 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens Kit Summary

With a versatile zoom range offering a full-frame equivalent to 24-80mm, the M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm F/2.8 PRO II is paired with the OM-1 Mark II Body for this OM System OM-1 Mark II Camera with 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens Kit.

Both the OM System camera and micro four thirds lens benefit from second generation upgrades, providing incredible potential for a variety of subjects including landscape photography, portraits, architecture and as a general purpose lens, which also excels for video.

OM System has designed this kit to provide IP53 weather sealing for rugged outdoor use, ensuring you can confidently continue working, even in challenging weather conditions.

The 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II lens packs an intricate optical design, which renders high-resolution detail, as well as maintaining the lens’ incredibly compact and portable form factor. The flagship OM System camera also provides a host of refinements over the first generation, which include significant updates to the AF system, with AI subject recognition and tracking of Humans, Animals, Birds and numerous vehicles.

Its 5-axis stabilisation system has also undergone refinement, providing impressive compensation of up to 8.5 stops. This improvement effectively compensates for the absence of IS in the included lens, enhancing your shooting experience and resulting in a powerful low light kit, which is stabilised by the camera body.

Other notable features include new positionable graduated Live ND filters, 14-Bit RAW when shooting in High Res modes, and the addition of vertical video for social channels.

Class-leading in-body stabilisation

OM System has refined the 5-Axis Image Stabilisation system for outstanding effectiveness whether shooting macro close-up shots or with a super telephoto lens. This allows you to shoot handheld confidently at slow shutter speeds and in low light, with up to 8.5 stops of compensation, using the world’s most advanced image stabilisation technology.

Fast and bright 120fps EVF

With OM System’s high-speed 120fps Electronic Viewfinder, you capture exactly what you see. Experience lifelike, blackout-free shooting from 12.5 to 120fps, featuring a minimal display delay of just 0.005 seconds.

120fps ProCapture

Capture even the most fleeting moments effortlessly, by half-pressing the shutter to initiate 120fps shooting automatically, and fully press to capture the exact shot you desire.

Pro Capture is available at up to 50fps with continuous AF and 120fps with single AF, ensuring you come away with the perfect shot regardless of how quickly or erratically the subject is moving across the frame.

Computational photography redefined

Live GND Filters

LiveGND is OM System’s newest Graduated Neutral Density filter, which offers the creative freedom to precisely position the graduation to your liking. Simply drag the position of the LCD screen to perfectly compensate for brighter skies.

Soft, medium and hard grad ND’s are available, with GND2, GND4 and GND8 strengths.

When shooting with solid ND filters, a full stop of ND performance can be controlled via ND strengths ranging from ND2 to ND128, catering for situations which include moving water and waves, clouds and more.

OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens in more detail

Dependable performance

The M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens goes beyond standard IPX1 ratings with advanced IP53 dust and splash-proof sealing. It’s also freeze-proof down to -10°C, ensuring reliability in challenging conditions like rain, snow, and dust

Superb image quality

With its optical design of 14 elements in 9 groups (including 1 EDA lens, 2 aspherical lenses, 1 DSA lens, 2 ED lenses, 1 HD lens, and 2 HR lenses), this lens delivers outstanding resolution throughout the zoom range. In total it features 4 aspherical lenses, including a DSA element, to maintain a compact and lightweight design while delivering the exceptional imaging expected from PRO lenses.

These specialised elements effectively correct aberrations that can occur, ensuring high resolution from the centre to the edges of the frame, even across the entire zoom range. This high-performance standard zoom maximises the camera body’s image quality, especially in High Res Shot mode, for up to 80MP images.

Enhanced clarity and sharpness

By utilising cutting-edge manufacturing techniques, the M.Zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens minimises surface scattering on its aspherical lenses, leading to a substantial reduction in flare compared to traditional optics.

The inclusion of ZERO coating (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) further enhances resistance to backlighting when shooting subjects illuminated from behind, ensuring improved clarity and sharpness in your images, regardless of lighting conditions.
