Description
The Olympus OM-D E-M1X is a mirrorless Micro Four Thirds camera that offers a wide range of photo and video options to meet the needs of the professional photographer. Focused on reliability, speed and flexibility, the E-M1X is equipped with a 20.4MP high-resolution Live MOS sensor and dual TruePic VIII image processor and features its fast shooting series, up to 60 fps with electronic shutter and 15 fps with mechanical shutter, as well as DCI and UHD 4K video recording. The sensor and processors also offer a sensitivity range of up to ISO 25600, while advanced 5-axis sensor stabilization compensates for up to 7.5 stops for sharper handheld photos and videos. In addition to the image itself, the sensor design includes 121 autofocus phase points, all cross-type, along with 121 contrasting autofocus points.
In addition, the Olympus OM-D E-M1X is also the first Micro Four Thirds camera to feature integrated vertical flu for enhanced ergonomics and control, regardless of horizontal or vertical shooting. This flu also allows you to use two batteries at a time, for longer shooting sessions.
Other main features of the body are the presence of a 2.36MP OLED viewfinder with 0.83x magnification and a 3-inch LCD screen that is fully movable. In addition, built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, compass, barometer and altimeter extend sharing and remote shooting capabilities, while both SD UHS-II card slots and USB 3.0 Type-C port expand the ability to connect, share, and charge the camera.
The Olympus OM-D E-M1X durable magnesium alloy body provides weatherproofing to keep it running in harsh climates and is also damp and dust-proof.
