OM-D E-M5 Mark II Camera

The following video presents EUROPEAN PROSUMER COMPACT SYSTEM CAMERA 2015 – 2016 – Olympus OM-D E-M5 II:

The Mark II sees the popular E-M5 refined to being a really serious photographic tool. The superb electronic viewfinder, fully articulated touchscreen, quiet shutter, and extremely effective 5-axis in-body image stabilisation system combine to make an exceptionally capable camera. The autofocus is extremely fast, and continuous shooting is available at up to 10fps. The innovative 40-million-pixel high resolution composite mode is capable of image quality close to that of high resolution full frame DSLRs for static subjects. Much-improved movie features also make the Mark II very interesting to videographers. Overall the E-M5 Mark II is one of the finest CSCs currently available.

M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 40‑150mm 1:2.8 PRO Lens

The following video presents EUROPEAN PROFESSIONAL COMPACT SYSTEM LENS 2015-2016 – Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40‑150mm F2.8 PRO:

The M.Zuiko Digital ED 40–150mm F2.8 Pro covers the same picture angles as an 80–300mm lens for full frame, but in a much smaller and lighter enclosure. With a large and constant F2.8 aperture, the zoom range easily replaces almost any fixed focal length lens in its range, and yields outstanding sharpness and optical correction even at full aperture. The build quality is also exceptional, allowing professionals to use the lens under challenging conditions. Add to that super fast performance, supported by the class-leading autofocus and image stabilising features of compatible pro range cameras, the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 Pro stands out as a must-have lens for sports, adventure and press photography.
