OM SYSTEM
The OM System is comprehensively arrayed to
meet an ever-expanding universe of photographic
conditions for any subjects from the stars to micro-
organisms.
A full-scale system camera is distinguishable by
some of the prerequisite characteristics as broad-
ly mentioned below:
• Interchangeability of focusing screens.
• Adaptability to high speed motor drive pho-
tography.
• A wide range of high quality system compo-
nents, including interchangeable lenses.
• Compatibility of the camera body with an
electronic flash unit allowing high technic
flash
photography
with
extreme
ease
and
accuracy.
• Tough and reliable shutter, viewfinder, etc.
that withstand harsh handling without fail-
ing.
When these exacting conditions have been satis-
fied, an OM-2 is born as a true system camera that
controls an entire SLR comprehensive system. The
OM-2 is backed up with over 300 components
systematically organized under eight groups — In-
terchangeable Lens, Finder, Flash, Motor Drive,
Phototechnical, Macrophoto, Photomicro and
Case.
