Olympus at The Photography Show Get up close and personal with the OM-D E-M1 Mark II and the rest of the Olympus range at stand D91, where the Olympus team of experts will be on hand to show you the system’s full potential

At this year’s Photography Show you’ll be able to get your hands on Olympus’ flagship OM-D E-M1 Mark II. Announced in September last year, the OM-D E-M1 Mark II reached new limits with its blazingly fast 60 frames- per-second shooting speed. In continuous autofocus the camera can shoot at 18fps, but switch to the OM-D E-M1 Mark II’s Pro Capture mode and you’ll be able to capture shots at 60fps in single autofocus. To help you freeze instant moments the camera will buffer shots at 14fps while the shutter is half pressed, and then record at 60fps as you fully push down the shutter. What’s more, with on-chip phase detection and a 121-point hybrid autofocus system the E-M1 Mark II can focus quickly and precisely making it perfect for wildlife and sports photographers.

Improving on the sensor of its predecessor the OM-D E-M1 Mark II features a 22-megapixel sensor and also features a high-res shot mode which merges shots to create a 50-megapixel file. As the first Olympus camera to feature 4K video, videographers can capture pro-quality footage and with the in-camera image stabilisation you’ll get steady footage even when handheld. Couple the camera with the M.ZUIKO 12-100mm f/4 PRO lens which features its own image stabilisation and you’ll be amazed at the results. Another first for Olympus is the inclusion of dual memory slots. The camera’s tilting touchscreen allows you to compose images with ease and you can also tap the screen to focus and shoot. All of these features are packed
