Description

The OM System OM-3 is a stylish and lightweight mirrorless camera body featuring a durable magnesium alloy build with a vintage-inspired retro design. Features include customisable creative controls, in-camera computational photography features and cinematic video capabilities. With a 20.37MP stacked BSI Live MOS sensor and TruePic X image processor, the OM-3 delivers flagship-level performance for both photographers and video creators.

Classinc durable design
Drawing inspiration from the Olympus OM-1’s classic pentaprism, delta shaped body, and tactile top dials from the days of film photography, the OM-3 integrates state-of-the-art technology in a high quality, compact, lightweight body.
A magnesium alloy body with IP53 splash and dust resistance, ensures reliable performance in harsh conditions, while freeze-proof functionality down to -10°C allows photographers to capture moments in any environment.

Powerful imaging technology
Equipped with the TruePic X image processor and a 20.37MP stacked BSI Live MOS sensor, the OM-3 delivers exceptional image quality, maximizing the performance of M.Zuiko digital lenses.

Image stabilisation
The 5-axis Image Stabilisation provides up to 6.5 shutter speed steps of compensation for the centre, and 5.5 for the corner. When paired with compatible lenses, the camera supports Sync IS delivering even more powerful image stabilisation up to 7.5 shutter speed steps at the centre and 6.5 at the corner, ensuring blur-free images in any scenario.

Customisable profiles
Recreate the look of classic film photography with the OM-3’s intuitive colour and monochrome profile controls.
Colour profile control: Adjust the saturation of 12 colours across 11 levels, combined with Highlight and Shadow Control for rich, dynamic tones. Choose from four presets like ‘Standard’, ‘Chrome Film Rich Colour’ for deep, dynamic tones, ‘Chrome Film Vivid,’ which provides vivid saturation and rich colors, or ‘Chrome Film Soft Tone’ for light, soft tones.
Monochrome Profile Control: Apply a combination of up to four effects. Presets include Colour Filter effect, Highlight & Shadow Control, Shading effects, Film Grain effect, and Monochrome Colour effect for unique black and white images. The following four presets are available: Standard, Classic Film B&W, which makes use of a film grain effect, for striking black-and-white images, Classic Film IR, simulating the look of infrared film, and Classic Film Low Contrast, which tones down contrast for a subtle finish.

Computational Features
The OM-3 brings advanced post-processing tools directly into the camera, giving photographers unprecedented creative control at their fingertips.
Access features like High-Res Shot (Tripod and Handheld), Live ND/GND, HDR, Focus Stacking, and Multi Exposure through the intuitive CP button and Control Dial.
Save time and enhance your workflow by creating complex effects instantly—no additional software required.
