The E-M1X’s firmware update takes longer to complete versus other OM-D camera models. Please note the following:

• Be sure to have a fully charged battery in the camera. Without sufficient power, the firmware update may fail or will not start.
• It can take up to 12 minutes to update the firmware on the E-M1X, including downloading and writing the firmware data to the camera.
• Do not disconnect the USB cable during the update. Once the OK icon is displayed on the camera’s rear monitor, it is safe to disconnect. It will take approximately 5 minutes for the firmware file to download, and an additional 5 minutes until the OK icon is displayed (after the writing icon is displayed) on the rear monitor.

Bird detection AF has been added to Intelligent Subject Detection AF, which was developed using AI technology (deep learning technology). The camera automatically prioritizes detection and continues focusing on a bird’s eyes so the photographer can concentrate on framing. Even when the camera fails to detect the bird’s eyes, it detects the head or body for tracking.

RAW video output to external equipment is now supported, enabling advanced post-production tasks for video production pros. RAW video data can be output in 12 bit 4K 30P, 25P, and 24P/Cinema 4K 24P. It is recorded in Apple ProRes RAW format on the supported external output device. See video captured with our newest firmware update.

*Compatible external device: ATOMOS NINJA V HDR monitor recorder

Focus indicator display is now available during manual focusing. With this feature, users can check the focus movement direction and position estimates while shooting.

• Focus Stacking Mode is now compatible with the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO lens.
• Improved video image stabilization

USB raw data edit

Use the processing power of your camera to expedite the development of RAW files with Olympus Workspace* while tethered via USB.

*Requires update to Olympus Workspace v1.1. Requires USB connection. Limited to RAW data editing that can be handled internally in the camera. When moving to USB RAW data editing, editing content set thus far in the edit window is not carried over. The file saving format is JPEG only. USB RAW data editing cannot be performed simultaneously while connecting two cameras at the same time.

• Focus Stacking Mode is now compatible with the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12-45mm F4.0 PRO lens.
• When the EVF Auto Switch is set, you can now select how the viewfinder is displayed when the monitor is open.

Off: Disables the eye sensor. Press the  button to switch between the EVF display and the monitor display.

On1: The eye sensor operates regardless of whether the rear monitor is open or closed. Press the  button to switch between the rear-panel monitor Live View display and Super Control Panel display.

On2: The eye sensor does not operate while the rear-panel monitor is open. Press the   button to switch between the rear-panel monitor Live View display and Super Control Panel display.

When you update the firmware to Ver. 1.2, the camera's settings (except the date and time) are reset and menus will be displayed in English following the update.

The new AF algorithm from the OM-D E-M1X is included on the OM-D E-M1 Mark II. High-precision AF tracking performance has been created together with professional photographers. Active use of On-chip Phase Detection information improves AF performance when shooting video.

Single AF (S-AF) enables accurate focusing on the subject even with mixed perspectives. Completely remodeled algorithm for S-AF that does not erroneously focus on the backgrounds

C-AF Center Priority can be turned on/off for AF Target modes other than Single, Small, and 121-point. (Default setting is on) Provides assistance in peripheral areas when AF cannot focus on the central area. Effective for subjects that move vigorously. Furthermore, Group 25-point is supported now.

“Low ISO Processing (Detail Priority)” delivers higher resolution. The default setting is Drive Priority. When Detail Priority is selected, the maximum number of frames taken in sequential shooting is lowered.

OM-Log lets you shoot movies without loss of details in shadows or highlight blowouts, delivering greater freedom over video creativity through color grading. An LUT (Look Up Table) file is also released at the same time for grading tasks using Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve.

TruePic VIII image processor can be used for powerful, high-speed RAW processing. Requires update to Olympus Workspace v1.1. Requires USB connection. Limited to RAW data editing that can be handled internally in the camera. When moving to USB RAW data editing, editing content set thus far in the edit window is not carried over.
