Overview / Product Description
OM System PEN Mirrorless Camera
A compact, weather-sealed interchangeable-lens camera with creative profiles, 4K video, AI autofocus, and image stabilization for everyday and travel photography.
OM SYSTEM PEN is a compact interchangeable-lens camera for travel and everyday photography, designed for people who want high image quality and creative flexibility without carrying a bulky kit. At just 393 g (13.9 oz), its easy-to-carry body features IPX1-rated weather sealing for added protection when shooting in rain.
Creative color and monochrome profiles let you shape the look of your images, while five computational photography modes make creative effects easier to achieve — all in-camera. You can also share your profiles with others via the OI.Share app and discover new looks through the app's Profile Library.
OM SYSTEM PEN also offers 4K and vertical video. A fast 121-point all-cross phase-detection autofocus system, together with AI-powered Human and Pet Detection AF, helps keep subjects sharp and in focus. Image stabilization providing up to 5.5 stops of compensation helps reduce camera shake for steadier handheld stills and video, especially when shooting in low light or at night.
Main benefits

- A viewfinder, shutter button, dial-based operation, and interchangeable lenses give you a dedicated, intuitive camera shooting experience.
- Color, monochrome, and CP-button controls make it easier to create distinctive looks in-camera.
