Olympus has released its OM-D E-M5 Mk II Limited Edition as a homage to its classic OM-3Ti film camera.
Olympus' new limited edition OM-D E-M5 Mk II, which will be restricted to just 7000 sets worldwide, is coated with a special titanium paint colour and will have some exclusive accessories.
Released as an homage to the manufacturer’s classic OM-3Ti 35mm film camera, the new unit will be functionally identical to the E-M5 Mk II, but will include a special leather strap and a numbered owner’s card in a leather card case.
The OM-D E-M5 Mk II, launched in February 2015, is the latest model in the Olympus OM-D interchangeable lens camera series. Olympus says the design of the E-M5 series within the OM-D ILC system is reminiscent of classic “OM System” 35mm film cameras. This limited edition model pays homage to one of the last OM film cameras produced, the 1994 OM-3Ti, by adopting its titanium paint colour.
The specially designed camera strap and matching card case feature high-quality stitching and genuine leather. An owner’s card numbered from one to 7,000 is also included in the set as proof of authenticity. Olympus says an inspirational quote by Mr Yoshihisa Maitani, the designer of the OM System, will be printed on every card.
The OM-D E-M5 Mk II Limited Edition will be available in June. Recommended retail price for the Limited Edition Kit is $1,899 AUD and $2,199 NZD.
