The OM System HLD-10 Power Battery Holder is an essential accessory designed for the OM System OM-1 mirrorless camera. It provides extended shooting time and enhanced handling, especially for photographers who require longer battery life and a more secure grip during demanding photo shoots, such as wildlife, sports, or event photography.

Key Features:

  1. Extended Battery Life:

    • Dual Battery Configuration: The HLD-10 allows you to use an additional battery (BLX-1) in conjunction with the one inside the camera, effectively doubling the camera's battery life. This extended battery performance is especially useful during long shooting sessions or when working in remote locations without access to charging facilities.
  2. Ergonomic Design:

    • Enhanced Grip: The HLD-10 provides a more comfortable and secure grip, particularly when shooting in vertical (portrait) orientation. This is beneficial for photographers who frequently switch between landscape and portrait shots, offering stability and balance during handheld shooting.
  3. Weather-Sealed Build:

    • Durable Construction: Like the OM-1 camera, the HLD-10 features a dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof design, ensuring it can withstand harsh environments and challenging shooting conditions. This makes it an excellent companion for outdoor and adventure photographers.
  4. Additional Control Buttons:

    • Convenient Handling: The battery holder includes duplicate controls such as a second shutter release button, two dials, and additional function buttons, making it easier to access essential settings while shooting in vertical orientation. This setup improves shooting efficiency and allows for quick adjustments without needing to change hand positions.
  5. Compatibility:

    • Designed for OM-1: The HLD-10 is specifically built for the OM System OM-1 camera, ensuring a perfect fit and seamless integration with the camera body. It connects securely and functions as an extension of the camera.
  6. Optional AC Adapter Support:

    • Continuous Power: The HLD-10 can be used with an optional AC adapter (AC-5) for continuous power supply, which is useful during long studio shoots or when shooting time-lapse photography, where the camera remains powered on for extended periods.

Specifications:

  • Model: OM System HLD-10 Power Battery Holder
  • Battery Compatibility: BLX-1 (additional battery sold separately)
  • Dimensions: Matches the size and form of the OM-1 for seamless integration
  • Weight: Lightweight and ergonomic, designed to complement the camera's balance
  • Weather Sealing: Dustproof, splashproof, freezeproof

Conclusion:

The OM System HLD-10 Power Battery Holder is an essential accessory for OM-1 users who need extended battery life, enhanced ergonomics, and additional controls for vertical shooting. With its rugged, weather-sealed design, it is ideal for photographers working in challenging environments or shooting for extended periods
