Please note that the deal previously included in the beginning of this video has sold out, so I removed that portion of the video.

At that price, it's a kit that's impossible to resist! Unfortunately, I live in the wrong hemisphere.

Just pulled the trigger on this combo. Thanks a lot for the offer, I've been eyeing this system for quite some time. Cannot wait to take my macro pics to the next level. Cheers

There are 4 zuiko lens you can use with teleconverter, like 40-150 F 2.8 and other long tele zoom lens, quite all zoom and 300mm prime, very good for not 1:1 macro but wonderful for dragonflies

Hello Micael, as a OM1 MkII / 90 mm Macro user, I am very interested to get the OM SYSTEM’s macro photography email series.However, your LINK does not lead me to get to it... Any idea, why? Thank you for a feedback...

Thank you for the nice video and the info about the special offert. You probably know this, some guys managed to mount MC-20 on 60mm by using some extension tubes. The focus to infinity was lost of course. But then 90mm was released, so it does not make sense to mount TCs on 60mm.

the teleconverter works with the 60mm if u use a 10mm extention tube

We all love the OM system for macro photography 😅 90mm is a beast! 💜

I love your videos

That's a pretty great deal but I already have the OM-1.I love my little Oly 60mm f 2.8 Macro but I have been very intrigued by the 90mm f 3.5 PRO after handling it a bit at a store and getting very addicted to very high magnification (I can get 4.5x FF equiv at the moment with my Frankemacro mod). I can't afford it this year so maybe next year. I just got my Oly 30mm f 3.5 Macro because I wanted a close-up performance for a wider angle/environmental perspective and I was lucky enough to snag it for 100 £ used on MPB which was hard to refuse. I can't wait to use it. I did get a used Oly FL-700WR and I am quite happy with it, it can't do the kind of speeds that my Godox V350 can do but, it's WR to be able to use it this winter and it can do bursts at lower powers like 1/16 and 1/32 for the 15 in camera focus stack shots. I do seem to get better IQ and rendition with the Oly flash than the Godox and I enjoy the pictures more, probably because of the larger flash head and the stronger and better colour-corrected light (my estimate is about 1 to 1 and a half extra stop of light). I didn't know that the FL-900 was WR and I thought only the 700WR was the only weather-resistant one, it's in its name. You should try the Olympus 40-150mm f 2.8 PRO for macro and close-ups because it's really good (not as good as the 300mm f 4 PRO but that lens can be too long sometimes), it can do 1:4 at 150mm, 1:2 at 150mm with 1.4x TC, 1:1 at 150mm with 2x TC. I got my favourite butterfly takeoff using the lens, OM-1 and Pro Capture 50 FPS, the butterfly took off and a hoverfly was so close to it that it looked like it was going to be a mid-air collision but (I didn't know that) the butterflies are so fast that out of 50 images I got 3 from the butterfly sitting on the flower to being out of the frame and they fly had no chance of ever hitting it.

Have both and am enjoying. However, if you visit Japan right now you can get the OM-1 Mark II for $1600 with the exchange rate. And the 90mm macro for about $1000. So, both for $2600 US.

Very nice macro photography video with OM System. Thanks for sharing. Big LIKE from Singapore.

Buyers be aware that the link provided for the deal is for the OM1 mk1 not mk11 camera, I noticed just in time before committing to the purchase.

You could put a macro extension ring between the teleconverter and the lens. I’m not sure how that will affect the ability to focus though. That depends on the lens, I think.

Love your ice photos

That is a really good offer for a OM1 camera with a 90mm macro Lens for 2100 Euro ! The 90mm has been much too expensive.

Micro Four Thirds have insane lens line-ups at the extreme ends. For macro they are definitely the best with the 90mm macro and at the long end they have equally brilliant wildlife primes and zooms that for the size, weight, weather-sealing and price(-ish) are unfound. Shallow DoF and sensor resolution though...

Hey Micael, Thanks for this video and awesome deal!❤ I'm saving up for om1 Mark2 with a 60mn macro lens. But now I go for this deal first and maybe in the future exchange the Om1 for Om1 Mark2. And also add a smaller macro lens. I'm now using my Nikon D3200 with extension tube on my 18-55mm kitlens and sometimes use the raynox 250. So a big leap forward with new gear 🎉 Can't wait to order and getting started with new gear. 😊

Hi Micael, ive recently started macro with a flash and diffuser. Can you advise on how to stop having a black background in most pics please

Could you do a video with all macro Lenses for the MTF system ? How are fx the Panasonic Leica Macro-Elmarit 45mm 2.8 Lens and does it work proper on a OM camera ? Strange that there not are some of the good Laowa macro Lenses, like fx the 65mm 2.8, 85mm 5.6 and 90mm 2.8 for MTF mount !

when u use extensiontubes then you can use teleconvertes

Got the OM-1 mk.1, 40-150 2.8 Pro as well as the 12-40 2.8 Pro mk.2 recently for 2499 euros new which I thought was pretty decent. Although I use also full frame Sony and aps-c Fuji it's the mft I go for when shooting insects...that 90 mm macro sure is tempting, but pricey...

Hello Micael, I urgenty need your opinion on a focusing rail. I can buy a lympus OM System Focusing Stage and Olympus OM Focusing Rail (probably combined with the original dia duplicator). I cannot find informations about this rail but I remember time ago I found an article that referred to this rail as the best ever made. What do youi think is it worth?

Micael would you know if there will be any differences between the om1 vs om1 mkii for macro?

Just discovered your channel...fantastic information and images. As someone who wants to learn macro, this is priceless. So much appreciated 😊

I have all 3 macros. Each has its place. Don't overlook that 30mm. Great for a small walk around kit.

The pictures are beautiful, but doesn't decrease the emotional value of them, when achieving that by one click. If it gets too easy one has to move on, but where will we go?

I left Canon about almost 2 years ago for Olympus(OM.Systems) and I must say, I will never look back. I was never able to take such good photos with the Canon when compared to the Olympus.

I use m43, all Olympus so far, I am thinking a video/still picture balanced m43 camera body, Lumix GH6, even older still available GH5ii, are all superior to current all Olympus OMDs in terms of video capabilities. I can't see Lumix GH6/GH5ii lack of much still photography ability? Right or wrong? all can do focus stacking, I don't care in camera focus stacking. I wonder if Lumix GH6+Olympus 90mm be a better macro videography option meanwhile still not much weaker for macro photography than OM1+90mm. Macro photography is my 1st priority. Hope the deal comes to Canada someday before my next m43 camera purchase

Thank you for the great review. I have had a question for a while now. Macro means 1x magnification which is life-size reproduction on the sensor. Wouldn't that be the same across every format (not relative)? life size is equivalent (exactly the same) on everything from m4/3 to 8x10.

Micael, could you please advise on the following. I have been a LUMIX shooter for years and have their lenses, but I own the Oly 60mm Macro and love it. My question is this. For someone who wants an OM body for macro only, which older used market Olympus body would be recommended that could give the high burst rate with electronic shutter like the newer OM-1 (for macro only) without the need for the other improvements? Thank you!

Next olympus camera: takes the photo for you

Hi how are things? I wanted to know if when you do macro, Focus Stacking or Bracketing. Can you look through the viewfinder or screen? Or it turns off directly and you take the photo "blindly", where the framing may vary a little. The Sony a7 IV, is it the same? Does it have the same features? From already thank you very much.

can the olympus flash keep up @15 fps in stacking mode at say 1/32 power i wonder ?

Do you have stacked photos taken with the OM 90mm without using the flash ? It would be nice to see on your flickr account.

I’m a canon shooter, but for macro photography, the Olympus wins hands down

You have started convincing me to switch from my beloved mirrorless Canon Mikael 😅

While I love my fuji cameras, if I ever had to replace my kit, it would be with an OM Macro centric system

Hello, Micael ! As always, thank you for sharing your techniques with us. I have a question if you don’t mind answering. which sdcard do you recommend when using burst mode(CRaw)? thank you.

Wow....that is an amazing deal

Använder du mekanisk eller elektronisk slutare vid makrofotografering med blixt och Olympus 90 ? Mvh Ronny

Thank you

I have some doubts: does the focus stacking works with the 2X magnificatio?. If I´m right, the 2X only works with manual focus. Maybe I´m wrong, I just a begin¡inner with this incredible lens. Until now I used the 60mm. Thank you for your videos, they are great.

I would REALLY love to buy OM-1 mark II with the discount, please tell me it's possible. As a second body I'd buy that of course, but if I want to switch systems, OM-1 mark II gives too much options, and upgrades to skip the chance, even with that price discount.. Highres 14 bit just alone is a dealbreaker. Bigger buffer... stickier AF... +1 stop of ND filter.. at the end GND just for fun.

Excellent video. Is the lens compatible with Sony cameras? Thx

Canon can do that, Stack internally, but doenst has very good macro lens variety, only 100mm but only goes 1.25x magnification and is expensive, less focal distance only reachs 0.5x magnification on lenses like 24,35 and 85mm, can use a adapter Ef and use variety of lenses but gives a 1kg or more equipment to have macro. OM is better value for money

Hi Michael, so will we see you using the FL 900R from now on? I feel less alone 😂, I've never seen anyone else use it to make macros. I have been using it for more than a year and have never had any problems, stacking 50/60 shots.

A great offer. 😮 Pity I bought the lens 2 weeks ago. 😢

Hello Micael Thanks for your great work on KZfaq!!! As OM-User I tried to profit from your offer. It didn`t work. NOT available. Tried today again and it worked. Swiss landsman living in Germany.

Very tempting. Do you still prefer the AK Diffuser? Was thinking the Cygnustech might be lighter and easier to quickly fold but it is less bright according to your tests and I also wonder if that ribbon that is used to affix it to the lens would interfere with the manual clutch of the 90mm lens. Do you have any experience with that? Also I was going to spring for an Mark II before I saw that deal and now I'm thinking... as you have some experience with the Mark I now, do you think the upgrades of the Mark II would be worth the extra cost? Mark II + 90mm lens with 10% discount and cashback would cost ~2.800,- Euro so it's not too bad but still.

I don't see the kit in the list.

I wish i could afford the 90mm macro lens, its definitely the goat and id love to have it... Its way to expensive though and completely unattainable on a disability pension...🤷 The world is going bonkers and sooo many people are getting left behind, its crazy...

Thats a great deal, shame i dont get paid until the end of the month!

Nice! I do photography of moth at night and I take beautiful photos with my flash but it is very hard to see if the insect is in focus because of the lack of light, do you have any recommendations? I already use the light on the mk320 but I have to turn it on every time I take a photo.

I was tempted by the OM-1 offer but unfortunately it's not so good in the UK - £2,399.00 (about 2,800 Euros). Thanks Brexit!!

Merci pour la promotion ! C'est effectivement attractif par rapport au prix catalogue... Ceci étant, le prix d'origine est bien trop élevé, aussi bien pour l'OM1 (je ne dépaseerai pas 1000€/1500€) que pour l'objectif (je ne dépasserai pas 500/700€). La "promo" permet simplement à revenir à un prix raisonnable.

damn i bought my OM1 for an Week

I followed your link but could not see where to sign up for the macro email tips or to download the macro guide. The macro guide seems to be online only from what I can see from your link. I clicked on the explore macro and could not see a download link for the macro guide. Currently I have the 60 & 30 macro lenses,hopefully get the 90 one day. I also have the STF-8, but so far have not used it much as the power output is a bit weak

Please ask Olympus to extend the deal to Australia and New Zealand. Please

out of stock :(

Wish I had seen this sooner, already the kit has sold out!

Happy with my OM gear, but the amount of discounts @omsystem gives here and then, and specially NOW is for those who bought this set recently HEARTBREAKING, I bought the body 9 months ago for €1999 and the 90 mm macro for €1499, so I payed almost €1500 (!!!) TO MUCH!!!! The OMsystem compagnie make themself totaly UNBELIEVABLE. What is next? The OM mark II for €1000 next month???? For those who want to buy it for the first time it is a great opportunity but for me and many many other owners this is ridiculous! That makes I will NEVER buy a OM product again! Very poor management of OM 😢😢😢

Lol u have sold out! 😊
