OM SYSTEM PEN Overview

Mirrorless Power in Your Pocket

The OM SYSTEM PEN Mirrorless Camera packages the creative power of a full-featured mirrorless camera into a compact body with a high-res Micro Four Thirds sensor, quick autofocus, and a plethora of unique art filters, enabling you to capture personal moments with a creative twist. Designed for both new photographers looking for their first interchangeable lens camera and pros in search of a truly portable everyday camera, the PEN is equally suited for street photography in the city, a day at the skatepark, or a night out with friends. Its compact design lets it disappear in your hand, making it easier to catch candid moments and beautiful scenes.

A Redesigned Classic

From the first PEN film camera to the first digital PEN in 2009, PEN cameras have been on the leading edge of combining power with portability. 

The new PEN carries that legacy into the modern day, utilizing a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless system that allows the camera body and lenses to remain smaller and lighter than full-frame counterparts while still offering crisp detail, wide dynamic range, and vibrant colors.

Extreme Portability

Designed to be brought wherever you go, the PEN allows you to capture scenes where you would otherwise be wishing you had your camera or fighting with your smartphone to create a decent image. With a low-profile ergonomic grip and slim body, it fits comfortably in your hand or bag, out of the way until you need it. Whether it's a long hike or a full shooting day, the camera remains comfortable in your hand or on your shoulder thanks to its extremely lightweight design.
 
Built for Adventure

Use your PEN in any weather with no fear, thanks to its IPX1 water resistance rating when paired with separately available splashproof OM SYSTEM lenses. This allows the camera to resist vertically falling water, such as light rain, enabling you to bring it along in all weather, not just on sunny days.
 
Beginner-Friendly, Pro-Ready

With a powerful in-body image stabilization system, accurate autofocus, and specialized scene settings, it's incredibly simple to create beautiful, sharp images with your PEN whether it's your first camera or your hundredth. Interchangeable lenses and a larger image sensor than comparably sized cameras provide powerful low-light performance and crisp subject separation for beautiful images in any situation. 

An easy-to-navigate user interface and conveniently placed buttons and dials allow you to spend your time experimenting and developing your personal photographic style, not buried in menus.
 
As you grow as a photographer, the PEN grows with you thanks to a host of pro-level features: 

- Continuous shooting up to 30fps makes it easy to capture the perfect moment everywhere from photographing sports in the stands to birds in your backyard.

- Focus stacking and in-camera or bracketed HDR make it easy to capture stunning landscapes and starry skies with just your PEN and a tripod.

- In-camera multiple exposures allow you to create uniquely blended images without any post-processing.

- A hot shoe enables flash mounting and supports synchronization up to 1/250 second with front and rear curtain sync, allowing you to experiment with artificial light to unlock even greater creative potential.

- Thanks to its 20.4MP sensor, images from the PEN can be printed large without compromising on quality. However, when even greater image fidelity is needed, the PEN's High Res shooting mode allows you to combine multiple exposures in-camera to create ultra-detailed frames for massive prints or extreme crops.

Programmable Profiles

Switch between multiple color and monochrome image profiles in a second using the PEN's profile control menu. Create sets of color profiles, curves, sharpness, and other settings for different shooting purposes and switch between them as needed to minimize post-processing.  

For even greater creative control with no editing needed, the PEN also offers a wide range of unique Art filters. Quickly go from grainy black-and-white street photography to soft, dreamy portraits of your friends, then find a scenic point and create a miniature-style video, all with just the press of a button. 

The available filters include Pop Art, Soft Focus, Pale & Light Color, Light Tone, Grainy Film, Pin Hole, Diorama, Cross Process, Gentle Sepia, Dramatic Tone, Key Line, Watercolor, Vintage, Partial Color (18 Color), Bleach Bypass, Instant Film.
 
Video on the Go

Sometimes a single image isn't enough to record a moment. Capturing everything from travel videos to home movies to high-quality social media content has never been easier thanks to the PEN's power and portability. 

Face/Eye detection autofocus with human and animal recognition keeps focus sharp on your subject, even with the camera turned on you. If you prefer manual focus for cinema-style shooting, focus peaking and magnification are available to ensure you're tack-sharp.

The PEN is able to record in OM-Log400 with 4:2:2 8-bit color, allowing the image to be intensely color graded with minimal banding and artifacts for more professional needs.
 
Connect an external microphone via the 3.5mm port to record crystal-clear 24-bit audio in-camera, making it easier to create well-produced multimedia content with minimal editing. 

With the ability to record in crystal-clear 4K at 24 fps or ultra-slow motion at 120 fps, the PEN is the pocket video camera you didn't know you needed.
 
OM Image Share App

Use the OM Image Share app to remotely control your PEN camera. Adjust the camera settings and activate the shutter while seeing a preview of your frame with Live View, or use the remote shutter mode for a simpler wireless experience with no frame preview. 

Through the app, it's possible to quickly transfer photos straight to your phone and lightly edit them, enabling you to start sharing your work before you even get home.

Develop a distinctive style by creating your own library of editing profiles in the Image Share app, then share them with others for a collaborative creative process. 

GPS info can be recorded while connected to the app, allowing you to keep a detailed record of where your favorite images were made.
