USB-C Charging

New Shooting Modes
Two new creative shooting modes were designed specifically to aid low-light shooters:
Night Vision mode brings out the details of a scene shrouded in darkness, clearly displaying both the night sky and the foreground and simplifying composition.
Hand Held Assist allows users to gauge the stability of handheld long exposures in real time.
New Color Profiles
The OM-5 features two new video color profiles, the OM Cinema 1 & 2, meant to help the user achieve a cinematic look to video footage without requiring special processing or grading.
