Pairing the compact mirrorless camera with a versatile zoom, the OM-5 Mark II Mirrorless Camera with 14-150mm f/4-5.6 II Lens from OM SYSTEM provides a powerful and reliable configuration for shooting a wide variety of subjects..

The OM-5 Mark II has a USB-C port allowing both power delivery and high-speed transfer of photos and video. The new port also makes it possible to use portable power banks, available separately, to charge the camera on the go for all-day shooting in any environment. The computational photography button, located on the camera's top plate next to the shutter release button, gives the user direct access to a wide array of creative tools, such as High-Res Shot, Live ND, Focus Stacking, HDR, and Multiple Exposure modes without having to enter the menu. Two new creative shooting modes were designed specifically to aid low-light shooters: - Night Vision mode brings out the details of a scene shrouded in darkness, clearly displaying both the night sky and the foreground and simplifying composition. - Hand Held Assist allows users to gauge the stability of handheld long exposures in real time.

The OM-5 features two new video colour profiles, the OM Cinema 1 & 2, meant to help the user achieve a cinematic look to video footage without requiring special processing or grading. Introduced in the OM-1 Mark II and the OM-3, the OM-5 Mark II now carries the company's newest menu system, a much-lauded and intuitive organization of features and settings that's easy to understand, even for first-time users. The OM-5 Mark II features a more pronounced handgrip, giving users a superior hold benefitting one-handed use.
