OM SYSTEM - OM-1

I was stoked to be a part of the release for the new OM SYSTEM OM-1 flagship camera. I was asked to create a comprehensive review of the unit and put it through its paces across a variety of different shoots. I was blown away at the capabilities of the new camera and had qutie a lot of fun shooting with it. Thanks to all the awesome people who helped me out on this whirlwind few weeks.
