The OM System OM-5 is a mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera with a Micro Four Thirds mount, announced by OM Digital Solutions on 26 October 2022 and released in November.[1][2] This was the first camera to be branded “OM SYSTEM” for the EVF, replacing the old “OLYMPUS” branding.[1] In keeping with the “camera you can take with you” philosophy, the OM-5’s functions such as 5-axis image stabilisation, Computational Photo, Hi-Res Shot, dustproof, water-proof and low temperature resistance were inherited, while a compact and lightweight body was pursued.[1]
