OM SYSTEM OM-1 II Digital Camera with 12-40 II PRO Lens Kit

Weather-sealed speed with a do-everything F2.8 zoom.

The feel:
This kit is built for real life: small, tough, and fast. The OM-1 Mark II locks onto birds, people, and vehicles with uncanny subject-detect AF, while the 12–40mm PRO II gives you a constant F2.8 from a wide 24mm-equivalent to a flattering 80mm—perfect for travel, portraits, events, and landscapes without juggling lenses. Add OM SYSTEM’s powerful in-body stabilization and computational tools (Live ND, Handheld High Res, Starry Sky AF), and you’ve got a pro-grade setup that thrives when the light—or weather—doesn’t.

Why photographers love this kit (benefit-focused):

• One lens that covers your day: 12–40mm on Micro Four Thirds equals 24–80mm full-frame view—wide interiors, street, family, and detail shots with a bright F2.8 throughout.

• Fast, sticky autofocus: 1053-point cross-type phase detection with improved Subject Detection (birds, animals, people, vehicles) for confident tracking in cluttered scenes.

• Steady handhelds: Class-leading in-body stabilization helps keep stills sharp and video smooth—great at the long end or in low light.

• Computational creativity, on demand: Handheld 50MP High Res, Live ND (silky water without filters), Live Composite, Focus Stacking, and Starry Sky AF.

• Pro video ready: 4K up to 60p in 10-bit, with OM-Log/HLG profiles for flexible grading and external recording support when you want it.

• True field durability: IP53 weather sealing on both body and lens, fluorine-coated front element, and freeze resistance (–10 °C) so you can keep shooting.

• Close-up flexibility: The lens focuses to 0.20 m across the zoom range (max mag up to 0.3×)—perfect for food, florals, and texture studies.

• Controls that feel right: Manual-focus clutch with hard stops, L-Fn button on the lens, customizable body controls, and a bright OLED EVF for precise framing.

Good to know:

• Mount: Micro Four Thirds (2× field-of-view factor).

• Stabilization: The 12–40mm F2.8 PRO II is non-IS; you’ll rely on the OM-1 Mark II’s IBIS. For maximum Sync IS performance, pair the body with an IS-equipped M.Zuiko lens.

• Filters: 62 mm on the lens—easy to share NDs and polarizers across a compact MFT kit.

What’s in the box:
OM-1 Mark II body, BLX-1 battery, USB-C cable/charger (region dependent), body cap, strap; M.Zuiko 12–40mm F2.8 PRO II lens, LH-66D hood, front & rear caps.

Ideal for: Travel and everyday creators, hikers and wildlife lovers who shoot in all weather, event/documentary shooters who value speed and reliability, and anyone who wants a compact kit that punches way above its size.
