Editing notes
The 2× crop factor means a 25mm lens frames like a 50mm, and depth of field at f/2.8 resembles f/5.6 on full frame — which changes how much background separation a portrait recipe can assume. Base ISO 200, not 100.
Looks that suit these files: Moody matte, cool grade, Tri-X-ish 400.
The files it writes
The OM System OM-1 records RAW as .orf. Olympus's format, carried over under the OM System name. Its computational modes — Live ND, hand-held high res — write ORF files that some third-party converters read as ordinary ones and some refuse.
