Before we begin, let me tell you one thing: both cameras carry almost the same core specifications like sensors, image processors, and other technical aspects, so the image quality and video quality will be the same.
Here comes the design part: if you would like a slightly retro-looking camera, you can go with the Olympus OM-3, the latest edition. But if you love to have the Olympus OM-1 Mark II, why would you love it? Because it has a deeper DSLR-style hand grip. Another thing is that due to the type of body construction, there is no overheating issue associated with this particular camera. Now, the OM-3 heatsink isn’t as good as the OM1 II, so it may be prone to overheating while recording 4K videos for a longer period.
Which Camera is Recommended for You?
If you love to have a DSLR-style hand grip and a professional-grade weather-sealed rugged body, then the OM-1 Mark II is the better choice. Another thing—yes, we do have some slight photography advantages inside the OM-1 Mark II, like an extended ISO range. Right now, we don’t have confirmation about the OM-3, but it does not have a very high-resolution electronic viewfinder of 5.76 million dots, as well as a mechanical shutter range up to 1/8000 of a second.
Professional grip easy to carry heavier lenses with the camera, and even makes feels you more and more comfortable when you hold this camera for longer hours for shoot, like shooting an event or wedding
Even the continuous shooting speed of the mechanical shutter is approximately 10 frames per second in the Olympus OM 1 mark II, which is limited to 6 frames in the OM-3. So, if you look at all the possible core specifications in both cameras, then for photographers who don’t bother about the type of design they are getting and are not inclined towards the retro-style camera, the best option is to buy the OM-1 Mark II.
The Olympus OM3 is even marketed as a street-style Retro camera. Most of the pics used for promotion showed people holding their cameras with straps and using a lightweight lens, but again professionals who hold their camera hands for longer periods will surely prefer the OM1 Mark II
For Videographers and Photographers
The best thing recently introduced in the new OM-3 camera is the OM-Cinema Mode. With the OM-Cinema Mode, you get a decent, slightly less-contrasty color picture profile, which is more suitable for displaying your captured videos on 4K HD televisions.
But again, you have to consider one thing—if you are a podcaster who records for longer periods, then you should go with the OM-1 Mark II, since it doesn’t have any limitations like the 120-minute recording limit in 4K on the OM-3.
If you are into longer recording sessions, then for sure, the OM-1 Mark II is the best choice. Additionally, it supports Full HD video recording at 240 fps for slow-motion shots.
Again, the Cinema Mode in the OM-3 can be easily adjusted in post-processing, so it’s not a big thing.

Nikon Z5 II is coming in the summer of 2025, according to the latest information available on the web. We already have the rumored core specifications of the upcoming camera.
Nikon Z5 II Rumored Specification
- 24.5MP Full-Frame BSI CMOS Sensor
- Expeed 7 image processor
- 4K UHD 30p / Full HD 120p Video Recording, 1.5x 60p with crop
- 273-Point Hybrid AF with Eye and Animal Detection
- 5-Axis In-Body Image Stabilization
- Bright 3.69M-Dot OLED Electronic Viewfinder
- 3.2″ Tilting Touchscreen LCD
- Dual UHS-II SD Card Slots
- Built-In Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Connectivity
- USB-C Charging and Power Delivery Support
Earlier, we were receiving continuous information that the Nikon Z5 II camera would arrive just after the announcement of the Nikon Z50II. However, it now seems that the announcement has been delayed. One of the reasons behind this delay is the huge demand for the Nikon Z50II camera in the market. Nikon will surely allow the Z50II to reach its peak period, which generally lasts 7 to 8 months after the camera’s announcement. In general, camera manufacturers avoid announcing two different cameras in the approx same price range due to the fear that each will cannibalize the other’s sales.
Best Lenses for Nikon Z50 II in 2025
Since the Nikon Z50 II was announced back in November 2024, it seems quite logical for Nikon to announce the Z5 II camera sometime in the summer months of 2025.
List of Upcoming Nikon Cameras and Lenses
– COOLPIX P1000 (P1100?)
– Z 35mm f/1.2 S (Already Announced)
– Z 28-135mm F4 PZ (announced )
– New series of cinema lenses
– Z9II
– Z5II (probably summer 2025)
– Z series video cameras
We will post updates as soon as we receive any new information related to the upcoming camera.

 Identical twins – Body design, and button layout remain the same, the only change in the camera name is noticeable Now we have created a different table where we have sorted out the major differences between the two. The thing that disappoints us, number one, is that there is no major upgrade we can find in the hardware zone of the camera. The sensor, the image processor, the lens, and even the battery—everything remains as it was in the predecessor of the camera. And the thing that disappointed us more is the drop in image stabilization support. Now, the P1100 camera got an IBIS rating of 4.0 stops only, whereas the Nikon P1000 camera had an image stabilization rating of 5.0 stops from CIPA.

Some more differences between the two model
| The flash’s guide number drops from 16 to 12m in the new Nikon P1100 |
| New Fireworks Show Scene Mode and Long Exposure NR. |
| Connectivity Features Improved – WPA3-SAE Wi-Fi for greater security and Bluetooth 5.1 |
Verdict:
The Nikon P1100 camera announced, does carry some necessary updates— most notably, the addition of a USB-C port, which is now mandatory for all electronic devices in the European Union. Other than that, the camera does have some minor upgrades, so if someone already has a P1000 camera, there is no need to spend extra money on this one, as the overall core specifications remain the same as those of the P1000.
Those who are looking for a mega zoom camera can buy it, since the P1000 has now been discontinued by Nikon, making the P1100 the only remaining super mega zoom model in the market.

Recent reports suggest the demand for the Nikon P1000 camera has gained huge momentum. The camera is now selling for more than its recommended MSRP retail price range (approximately 2X price), and this is very clearly visible in online stores all around the world.
The demand for compact cameras has returned to the market, and most influencers right now are willing to buy a high-quality compact camera. However, the supply of compact cameras is very low, and at the same time, there is only one super high-zoom camera available: the Nikon P1000.
As we have already said, the recent report shows that the price of the P1000 is skyrocketing globally. Now let’s dive into the details and explore the possibilities, starting with the name of the camera.
Nikon P1100 or P2000: What’s Next from Nikon?
First of all, the scarcity of the Nikon P1000 camera and the high price tag clearly indicate a very high demand for a new model. Another big hint is that most of the P1000 stock has been sold out. It looks like the company is clearing up the previous stock in order to announce the new camera.
What will be the name of the upcoming Nikon mega-zoom camera? Based on leaks and speculations, the name is not very clear. If they move in chronological order, the name of the upcoming camera will likely be Nikon P1000, which would be the successor to the P1000. Earlier, the P1000 was the successor to the P900 camera, so this is how they are moving in chronological order in their mega-zoom series. However, if they take a bold leap with a major upgrade in the core specifications of the camera, or if some groundbreaking features like AI autofocus, a larger image sensor, and better optics are introduced, it may lead to a major leap in the name too, like Nikon P2000. Chinese sources are specifically speculating that the camera name will be the Nikon P2000 and not the P1100.
Rumored Specifications of the P1000 Successor:
- 150x high-quality optical zoom lens, with digital zoom up to 200x. – As per the initial rumors, the camera is set to have a 3500mm zoom lens. Earlier, the P1000 model had a 3000mm zoom lens, which was equivalent to 125x optical zoom.
- The new lens will have an aperture of f/2.8 ultra-wide aperture, which will improve the overall low-light performance of the camera and will also help ensure more artistic depth of field in the shots.
- The NEW 1/1.8-inch CMOS sensor (larger than the P1000’s 1/2.3-inch sensor) aims to boost dynamic range, reduce noise, and enhance image quality
- New AI Auotofous: Similar to what we have seen in Nikon Z50 II, Z6 III, Z8, and Z9.
- 4k 60FPS Video and continuous, refined autofocus and color grading tools for enhanced video production
Nikon P2000 camera can easily dominate the bridge camera market with its unmatched zoom and new AI modes. The best thing is that literally no competitor is present in the bridge camera market to compete against the Nikon P2000 camera.
The camera is targeted towards bird lovers, travel photographers, and even professionals who want to have a secondary body and an alternative to heavy and bulky DSLR setups. At the same time, a huge market demand has emerged from content creators who love to have tax-saver products and higher-zoom cameras that produce better image quality than their smartphones.
Nikon should announce the P1000 camera as soon as possible. The fan base is eagerly waiting for Nikon’s next move. Stay tuned—we will update you as soon as we get any new information related to the company’s upcoming cameras and lenses.
