Olympus Rebrands As OM SYSTEM
The Olympus brand of cameras will be “OM SYSTEM” going forward, OM Digital Solutions Corporation announced today. Last year, it was revealed that the camera business of Olympus Corporation would be transferred to Japan Industrial Partners, and on January 1, 2021, the transfer was completed, forming a new company, OM Digital Solutions Corporation.

For how long the brand would continue to license and use the Olympus trade name was unclear at the time. According to today’s press release, “OM Digital Solutions is pleased to introduce the OM SYSTEM brand for our lines of interchangeable lens cameras and lenses, compact digital cameras, audio products, binoculars, and other services,” answering that question. New products will be released under the OM SYSTEM brand, and the company is underway in development of a new Micro Four Thirds camera.
For fans of Olympus cameras and the brand’s history, it’s a bittersweet announcement. Though the recognizable name is being phased out, the camera system itself—which has unique advantages in terms of size and weight compared to larger sensor camera systems—will continue.
