The OM-3 is a really cool camera with a sleek and sturdy design that feels great to hold. One of the best things about it is the creative dial, which gives you easy access to all kinds of shooting modes so you can experiment and get fun shots without fussing too much. It’s simple to use but packed with smart features that help you take awesome pictures, whether you're just starting out or more experienced. Overall, it’s a stylish camera that makes photography feel easy and fun!

Ich war lange Zeit auf der Suche nach einer stilvollen aber modernen Kamera bis ich die OM System OM-3 gefunden habe. Eine wahre Schönheit, die mir genügend Funktionen bietet. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

Die OM-3 vereint cooles Retro-Design mit moderner Technik.
Nicht nur der extreme Wetterschutz, auch die Möglichkeiten kreativ zu sein, machen die OM-3 schon jetzt zu meiner Lieblingskamera! (die ich bisher hatte)

I'm so impressed with this camera - a happy and creative day's shoot today, experimenting with the mono and colour film modes; GND filter simulation; handheld high-res etc. It was easy to flip between approaches using the selector at the front. I'm really happy with my images, and being able to adopt a mindset where both image capture and creative expression happen in the same moment. I'm not a fan of post-processing, this is much more enjoyable.

Endlich ist sie da! Sie ist genauso schick wie auf den Bildern und liegt schön in der Hand. Für immer dabei hatte ich bisher immer noch meine - doch schon etwas in die Jahre gekommene - PEN-F benutzt.
Meine OM-1 ist mir zu groß und sie kam nur noch für Shootings und besondere Anlässe zum Einsatz. Die OM-3 ist die perfekte Lösung für mich. Wesentlich kleiner als die OM-1 aber mit allen mir wichtigen Eigenschaften.
Und dazu noch das vordere Rädchen („Creative Dial“) für den schnellen Zugriff der Artfilter, super! Ich liebe den Pinhole Filter gefolgt vom Dramatic Tone. Klar kann man alles am Rechner machen. Ich habe es auch gern lieber direkt, lade es runter über die OI Share App und teile es mit meinen Freunden. Klar hab ich dann auch immer noch das RAW.
Den fixen Zugriff auf Live ND finde ich auch praktisch, so hab ich die Graufilter für alle Objektive gleich dabei. Und ein echter Gewinn ist auch Live GND. Super was alle schon so möglich ist.
Ohne Stabi kann ich mir die Fotografie gar nicht mehr vorstellen und der ist echt super bei der OM-3. Komibiniert mit meinem 17mm 1.8 hab ich ein für mich perfektes Immer-Dabei-System. Das neue spritzwassergeschütze 17mm 1.8 II ist die nächste Anschaffung auf meiner Liste. Dann macht der spitzwasserschutz der OM-3 für mich auch richtig Sinn und ich muss mir keine Gedanken mehr machen. Rundum sorglos.
Und was ich auch noch super praktisch finde ist, dass es die selbe Batterie wie bei der OM-1 ist. Muss ich nicht extra in Ersatzakkus investieren.
Ich hab sie erst seit ein paar Tagen, mit den ersten Ergebnissen bin ich aber super zufrieden. Und wie bei der PEN-F wurde ich wieder auf das schicke Design angesprochen. Sie war nicht super günstig, aber rundum ein perfektes Invest für mich! Ich bin super zufrieden!

I traded in a full frame Canon that I was finding too big & heavy, I’m 72 & this camera exactly suits my needs, it’s light, robust & has some excellent features. Took a while to set up but well worth the time as I can now go out & enjoy photography again. My first ever proper camera was the OM10 & this takes me back to many happy outings with that camera.

Ich habe die Kamera direkt nach dem Launch hier bestellt. Die Kamera macht auf dem ersten Blick ein sehr wertigen Eindruck, genau das, was ich mir gewünscht habe! Ich freue mich jetzt schon mit der neuen Om3 rausgehen zu können und die tolle kreativen Funktionen aus zu probieren.

desde hace pocos dias, pero GENIAL . tamaño pequeño pero llena de mucha potencia. permite cualquier tipo de trabajo , especialmente en foto callejera donde la discreción del tamaño es muy importante.
