The holiday season is here, and the OM SYSTEM Holiday Savings Event continues. Right now, you can save up to $400 on many of the cameras and lenses that OM SYSTEM makes, including the popular travel camera, the OM-3.

But that's not all: right now, almost every lens in the M.Zuiko lineup is on sale right now. Whether you're building your first OM SYSTEM kit or adding to an existing collection, there's never been a better time to go light without compromising on image quality. Check out the full lineup at explore.omsystem.com/petapixel or visit your local authorized OM SYSTEM retailer today!

Now saving when you shop for your favorite gear at B&H Photo is even easier with the B&H Payboo Credit Card, which lets you Save the Tax — you pay the tax, and B&H pays you back instantly! (Save the Tax on eligible purchases shipped to eligible states.) Or you can pay over time with 6 and 12 month financing (on minimum purchases of $199 for 6 months, and $599 for 12 months).
