OM SYSTEM OM-3 ASTRO

Explore the universe and your creativity, wherever the night takes you.

The OM SYSTEM OM-3 ASTRO astrophotography camera brings red nebulae, pinpoint stars, and long nights within reach. Its IR-cut filter, Starry Sky AF, and in-camera stacking do the technical work without turning the experience into a project.

A dedicated IR-cut filter reveals H-alpha light. TruePic X turns it into colour, contrast, and fine nebula detail.

H-alpha response

Red nebulae, recorded at the source.

The dedicated IR-cut filter is tuned for H-alpha wavelengths, bringing emission nebulae forward with richer red colour and fine structure. TruePic X processing supports the detail from wide starscapes through deep-sky scenes.

1,053-point AF

Starry Sky AF finds the point of light.

Focusing on stars can consume the best part of a clear night. Starry Sky AF is designed to lock onto stars directly, backed by 1,053 cross-type phase-detection points and 1,053 contrast-detection points.

Live Composite

Build star trails without washing out the sky.

Live Composite adds only newly appearing light as the exposure develops. Watch star trails, lightning, or light painting accumulate in real time while already-bright areas remain controlled.

Astro custom modes

Dedicated colour profiles on the creative dial.

Start with profiles prepared for red nebulae or starry landscapes, then adjust saturation, highlights, and shadows. Save a preferred result to the creative dial and return to it on the next clear night.

20.4 MP stacked BSI Live MOS

A sensor built for the faint light above us.

From broad Milky Way landscapes to distant nebulae, the OM-3 ASTRO is tuned for the colour and detail that ordinary daylight cameras can leave behind.

Dedicated H-alpha filter

Red nebulae, without a converted camera.

The OM-3 ASTRO is designed around the wavelengths emitted by red nebulae. Its dedicated IR-cut filter and TruePic X processing reveal colour, contrast, and structure straight from the camera, whether the frame is a broad starscape or a tighter deep-sky subject.

Creative dial and custom modes

Astro colour profiles, one turn away.

Dedicated profiles give red-nebula and starry-landscape work a considered starting point. Fine-tune saturation, highlights, and shadows, then store the combination so the camera is ready when the sky clears.

50 MP High Res Shot

Multiple frames aligned into cleaner 50 MP detail.

Fix the camera to a tripod or equatorial mount and Handheld High Res Shot combines multiple exposures into a 50 MP result. The in-camera alignment improves fine detail, reduces noise, and corrects star motion or tracking errors. On a fixed tripod, choose each exposure so stars remain point-like.

Starry Sky AF for direct focus on stars.

Night Vision mode keeps the live view usable in low light.

4K and C4K recording up to 60p, plus vertical video.

Electronic shutter up to 1/32000 second and 120 fps.

Micro Four Thirds lens mount and telescope-adapter compatibility.

Optional BMF-LPC01 and BMF-SE01 body-mount filters.

Bluetooth RM-WR2 support and wireless OI.Share control.

BLX-1 battery, USB cable, strap, manual, and warranty card included.
