Product Description
Experience creative freedom redefined under open skies.
The OM SYSTEM OM-3 ASTRO is a dedicated Astrophotography camera designed to push beyond daylight, capturing stars, galaxies, red nebulas, and nightscapes with confidence & precision. From glowing horizons to silent remote dark skies, it lets you explore the universe and your creativity, wherever the night takes you.
The OM SYSTEM OM-3 ASTRO features an IR-cut filter positioned in front of the image sensor, with optical characteristics optimally tuned to achieve approximately 100% transmission of Hα wavelengths, which are vital to astrophotography. This allows the camera to vividly capture the beautiful shapes and colors of nebulae emitting Hα light, which are difficult to photograph with standard digital cameras.
In addition, the combination of a high-sensitivity back-illuminated stacked Live MOS sensor, OM SYSTEM’s highest-performance image processing engine TruePic X, and the color profile control functions of the OM SYSTEM OM-3, enables clearer reproduction of star colors and faint nebulae, delivering high-resolution image quality even in high-sensitivity shooting.
The color profile control functions of the OM SYSTEM OM-3 ASTRO allow users to create more impressive expressions in both astrophotography and starry landscape photography. In the custom modes C1 to C3, color profiles are preset, with COLOR1 optimized for astrophotography such as imaging red nebulae, and COLOR2 optimized for starry landscape photography. By combining the custom modes with these color profiles, users can easily capture impressive images of the night sky.
Designed to handle a range of shooting scenarios from starscapes to astrophotography. Beautifully capture a broad range of celestial objects using a selection of high-quality M.ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses from wide-angle to telephoto, you can choose the perfect lens for your subject. Whether you are shooting spectacular starry skies, homing in on specific constellations, or capturing distant nebulae, this camera is up to the task. And if you are looking to take your astrophotography to the next level, you can even mount the OM SYSTEM OM-3 ASTRO body to an astronomical telescope using a commercially available Micro Four Thirds compatible adapter.
