Nikon Z6 II vs OM System OM-1
Every spec below is quoted from the makers' official pages — where a figure isn't published we say so rather than guess. Sizes are drawn at true relative scale from published dimensions, and the bag-fit row is computed against our measured bag catalog.
The 3 biggest published differences
- Resolution (MP): the Z6 II leads at 24.5 million (effective) vs the OM-1's 20.4 Megapixels effective; 22.9 Megapixels full resolution.
- EVF resolution: the Z6 II leads at Approx. 3690k-dot (Quad VGA) OLED vs the OM-1's 5760K dots.
- Burst — mechanical: the OM-1 leads at 50fps C-AF & AE Tracking (RAW) vs the Z6 II's Approx. 14 fps (Continuous H extended).
