Olympus OM D camera : Olympus is taking the pedigree of the 40 year old OM series into the next generation with the launch of the Olympus OM-D, also known as the Olympus E-M5. Featuring world’s first 5-axis image stabilization system, the Olympus OM-D eliminates blur in still pictures and videos like no other camera can do. The user can appreciate the blur reduction effect during active shooting via the fast electronic viewfinder. In addition, the Olympus OM-D user will benefit from world's fastest auto-focus system of any interchangeable lens cameras. The autofocus of the Olympus OM-D is a further refinement of the incredible FAST AF found on the popular Olympus PEN cameras.
