Steady posture with 5-axis image stabilization system.

The OM-5 can stabilize images in even the most unstable environments, with up to 6.5 stops of compensation (or up to 7.5 stops when using compatible Sync-IS lenses), making handheld shooting, even at extreme zoom levels, much easier.

Forget filters — get creative with LiveND.

Unleash the full potential of moving subjects by changing the way you see motion with LiveND. With up to four stops of effect (ND16), you can transform what used to be mundane into magical moments - even with the widest lenses.

Remove dust from the sensor using the Supersonic Wave Filter.

When you're on an adventure, you'll probably want to change lenses without worrying. The OM-5 features a Supersonic Wave Filter (SSWF) that generates over 30,000 vibrations per second to instantly remove dust from the image sensor.

Capture the moment you want, every time. 121-point PDAF autofocus.

The standard wide-angle to portrait-length zoom lens is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and provides a 24-80mm equivalent focal length range.

A constant f/2.8 maximum aperture ensures consistent performance in low light and selective focus control throughout the zoom range.

The lens construction incorporates two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements, two aspherical elements, one DSA (Double Super Aspherical) element, one EDA Extra-low Dispersion aspherical element, one HD element, and two HR (High Refractive Index) elements into its design to minimize aberrations, distortion, and color fringing throughout the zoom range, while ensuring overall image sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy.

ZERO (Zuiko Ultra-Low Reflection Optical) coating reduces lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy when working in bright light.

The Movie and Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system benefits both photo and video applications due to its smooth, quiet and fast operation.

A rounded seven-blade diaphragm ensures smooth bokeh quality.

Fluorine coating protects the optical system and repels dust, water droplets, grease and dirt, ensuring easy removal even when they adhere to the lens surface.

A reliable, weather-resistant design ensures the lens can operate in adverse and harsh conditions.
