You only have until 25th March! Last year’s Tell Your Story Program was a big success. It’s an initiative designed to help OM System discover and support new talent. Those lucky enough to be selected are provided with their own OM System OM-5 kit, plus the personal mentorship of a nominated OM System Ambassador. You…
Is this OM System’s most misunderstood lens? There is a lot of nonsense flying around about OM System’s new ULTRA-telephoto zoom lens. And there are also some honest concerns.

OM System, is it or isn’t it going to provide the software improvements from the OM-1 Mark II to users of the original OM-1?
A little old and affordable friend has returned; the m.Zuiko ED 9-18mm f/4-5.6 ultra wide angle zoom, now in Mark II guise. One of Olympus’ earlier Micro Four Thirds lenses, launched back in 2010, the m.Zuiko 9-18mm (18-36mm in full frame field of view) is a marvel in compactness and light weight. Its design is…
If a 400mm super telephoto (800mm in full frame terms) isn’t enough, OM System now has a solution; the new ultra tele m.Zuiko ED 150-600mm f/5-6.3 IS.

OM System m.Zuiko ED Digital 90mm f/3.5 IS Pro macro lens with STF-8 twin-flash Aimed at macro photography in the field…
It’s very easy for photographers who are invested in relatively large sensor camera platforms to dismiss the smaller sensor Micro Four Thirds system. You might think it’s even easier now that the big hitters, Nikon and Canon, have finally retired their DSLR strategies, following Sony’s move a few years back. Without the need for space…
Right from the original Olympus E-1 back in 2003, Olympus has specialised in high-performance environmental sealing of its premium model system cameras. There are plenty of anecdotes that testify to the reliability of Olympus camera body and lens environmental sealing to keep dust and water at bay. But it’s only relatively recently that Olympus and,…
