Nikon Z6 III vs OM System OM-1 Mark II
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
- EVF resolution: the Z6 III leads at Approx. 5760k-dot UXGA OLED vs the OM-1 II's Approx. 5.76M dots.
- Burst — electronic: the Z6 III leads at Approx. 16 fps (up to 20 fps extended high-speed) vs the OM-1 II's Pro Capture SH1 approx. 120fps; SH2 approx. 50fps (213-frame RAW buffer at 120fps).
- EVF magnification: the OM-1 II leads at Approx. 1.48x - 1.65x vs the Z6 III's Approx. 0.8x.
