When OM System announced<\/a> the OM-3<\/a> in February, it did so with a renewed focus on custom picture profiles. Nearly eight months later, OM System has launched an OM-3 Recipes hub<\/a>, where photographers can download custom recipes made by their fellow photographers. <\/p>\n

So far, there are six featured recipes, developed by photographers Jerred Z, Kyler Steele, Ali O\u2019Keefe, Kitty Marie, Paul Clark, and Jonathan Paragas. The featured recipes offer color and black-and-white photo profiles, ranging from soft and subtle to punchy and dramatic. <\/p>\n

For example, Kyler Steele\u2019s recipe, \u201cNostalgic Summer,\u201d is a vintage-inspired recipe \u201cthat focuses on vibrant greens and golden yellows while stripping away blues for a more timeless look.\u201d In contrast, Kitty Marie\u2019s \u201cRed Soda Pop\u201d recipe warms up the overall image, intensifies reds, and softens yellows and greens. <\/p>\n

OM-3 owners can submit their own recipes<\/a> for consideration through a form on OM System\u2019s OM-3 Recipes page. Photographers share their name, email address, Instagram account (if applicable), recipe name, and a brief description of their recipe. They then upload a .JPG file straight from the OM-3 that was shot using their custom recipe. <\/p>\n

The new webpage also features images that photographers have captured using OM-3 Recipes, and they\u2019re striking. <\/p>\n

Installing new recipes to the OM-3 is not quite as straightforward as it could be. Rather than utilize the OI.Share mobile app, installing downloaded recipes requires hooking the OM-3 up to a computer and opening the OM Workspace app. With the OM-3 set into MTP mode, photographers click Camera from OM Workspace\u2019s top bar, click \u201cLoad Color\/Monochrome Profile,\u201d and then drag JPEG images with custom recipes into the OM Workspace pop-up window. The app will display the precise settings for each recipe, and photographers can load their favorites onto C-setting positions. A complete installation video is available on OM\u2019s Creative Recipes page<\/a>. <\/p>\n

This convoluted installation process, which will surely prevent some photographers from utilizing other people\u2019s recipes, makes about as much sense as OM System locking its cinema profiles to its bad-looking 8-bit video files on recent cameras, like the OM-3. <\/p>\n

This C-setting position corresponds to the OM-3\u2019s top mode dial, which has C1-C5 custom mode positions to which users can assign custom recipes. The camera also features a front Color Profile control dial, similar to the one introduced by the beloved PEN-F nearly a decade ago. The Color Profile control dial includes Color, Mono, CRT, and ART settings, as well as a spot where users can scroll through standard and custom profiles.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Photographers have been able to experiment with their own custom recipes since the OM-3 launched in February, but with the new dedicated Creative Recipes website, it\u2019s easier than ever to download other people\u2019s creations. <\/p>\n
