NEW YORK, Feb. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — B&H is pleased to share OM SYSTEM’s latest release, OM-3 Mirrorless Camera, which delivers advanced performance and creative versatility while drawing design inspiration from the iconic Olympus OM-1 SLR film camera of the 1970’s. The company is also releasing updated versions of three lenses—17mm f/1.8 and 25mm f/1.8 primes and a 100-400mm f/5.6-6.3 super-telephoto zoom—to complement the release of the new interchangeable lens camera and to help creators to share their view world.

Product Highlights

20MP Stacked BSI Live MOS MFT SensorTruePic X Engine3.0″ 1.62m-Dot Swivel Touchscreen LCD2.36m-Dot OLED Electronic Viewfinder5-Axis In-Body Image StabilizationComputational Photography ButtonHigh-Res Shot, Live ND & Composite ModesIP53 Weather-Sealed & Freezeproof DesignSingle UHS-II SD Card Slot

The OM-3 vintage exterior camera contains a set of digital components ideal for creative expression. Building out from a 20.4MP stacked BSI CMOS Four Thirds sensor, the camera leverages its powerful TruePic X image processor—the same from the OM-1 mirrorless camera—to produce the scope of color profile controls and computational effects that distinguishes this system.

These color and monochrome profile controls enable users to make artistic adjustments to the image, allowing users to recreate the feel of film photography directly from the camera. In addition to both color and monochrome presets, users can adjust the saturation of 12 colors across 11 levels, along with highlight & shadow control, shading effects, a film grain effect, and a Monochrome color effect. A wide selection of Art filters are also available to apply via in-camera post-processing.

Further creative control is possible with the post-processing computational effects. High-Res Shot allow users to create images of up to 80MP in tripod mode and 50MP in handheld mode. Live ND and GND are two neutral density modes allowing for slow shutter effects in daylight and selective adjustments to manage difficult lighting within the frame. Other modes include Focus Stacking for broad depth of field, Multiple Exposure mode, and Live Composite mode.

These creative possibilities are emphasized in the camera’s design, which features both a Computational Photography button and a Creative dial, allowing users to directly access these settings without recourse to the menu.

The camera’s power processor also yields subject detection autofocus driven by AI, featuring six different subject categories with 1053-point phase detection. An additional autofocus mode, Starry Sky AF, is available for astrophotography. The camera’s 5-axis image stabilization provides up to 6.5 stops of image compensation at the center of the frame, with an additional stop when used in Sync IS with compatible lenses.

High-speed sequential shooting tops out at 120 fps, and the camera can shoot up to 50 fps with AF tracking engaged, while Pro Capture mode provides up to 70 frames of capture before fully pressing the shutter. The OM-3 also excels at video, offering 4K recording at up to 60p, in addition to Slow & Quick motion videos and the option for color profiling in either of the two OM-Cinema modes. Additionally, the camera’s heat management system permits continuous filming for up to 30 minutes at 104° F or indefinitely at 77° F without overheating.

The OM OM3 camera’s handsome, vintage design—which houses an electronic viewfinder in the iconic pentaprism—is by no means precious, and the compact, lightweight OM-3 continues the manufacturer’s dedication to building robust, weather-sealed cameras. The magnesium alloy body is IP53- rated for resistance against dust and water, with additional freeze-proof functionality down to 14° F. The camera runs on the same BLX-1 as the OM-1 digital camera and supports direct-to-camera USB-C charging.

Released alongside the new OM System OM3 camera are three M.ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses, the 17mm f/1.8 II and 25mm f/1.8 II prime lenses and the ED 100-400mm f/5.0-6.3 IS II super-zoom lens. The two primes are full-frame equivalents of 35mm and 50mm, respectively, offering bright maximum apertures and bokeh effects in wide-angle and normal-length perspectives. Both lenses are compact, lightweight, and feature an IPX1-rated water and dust-resistant design for use outdoors.

Compact, lightweight, and well-balanced for its reach, the ED 100-400mm f/5.0-6.3 super-zoom offers a 200-800mm full-frame equivalent focal length, extendable to 1600mm with an optional MC-20 2x teleconverter, and with its robust, IPX1-rated construction, is an ideal companion for wildlife photography in demanding outdoor conditions. Also well-suited for sports and other distant subjects, the lens supports 5-axis Sync IS, offering up to 7 steps of shake compensation.

Rounding out the slate of Olympus releases is the RM-WR2 Wireless Remote Control, compatible with the OM-3 and other OM SYSTEM mirrorless cameras, affording users wireless trigger release in slow-shutter exposures and other no-shake scenarios.

The OM-3 will also be available bundled with a kit lens, the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12-45mm f/4 PRO lens.

JAKARTA, Indonesia, April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The continued rise in digital fraud highlights increasing risks to consumer protection and the sustainability of Indonesia’s digital financial ecosystem. Data from Indonesia Anti-Scam Centre (IASC) under the Financial Services Authority of Indonesia (OJK) recorded over 432,000 digital fraud reports between November 2024 and January 2026, with total losses reaching approximately IDR 9.1 trillion.

RWA.LTD Announces Comprehensive Consumer Goods Token Ecosystem Layout at Hong Kong Web3 Festival, Leading the Launch of the Consumer RWA Alliance

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — During the Hong Kong Web3 Festival, RWA.LTD, the world’s first platform dedicated to consumer goods RWA (Real World Assets), officially announced the completion of its comprehensive consumer goods token ecosystem layout. At the event, the platform spearheaded the unveiling of the “Consumer RWA Alliance”. Positioned as the “Asian Consumer Goods Asset Trading Center,” RWA.LTD aims to enhance consumption efficiency through AI, reconstruct value distribution via Web3, and connect cross-city and cross-country consumer networks through tokens to accelerate the arrival of the “Smarter Consumer” era.

RWA.LTD stated that consumer goods RWA is not a single product, but a set of new infrastructure developed around consumption scenarios, the circulation of consumer rights, and brand interaction. Since CEO Fu, Rao Tony first proposed the concept of “Consumer Goods RWA” in late 2024, the team simultaneously prepared the RWA.LTD platform and completed Beta testing in September 2025. Following several months of iteration, the platform completed a comprehensive upgrade in mid-March 2026, marking RWA.LTD’s formal transition from the proof-of-concept stage to the ecological development stage.

RWA.LTD Ecosystem

In this public announcement, RWA.LTD systematically disclosed its four major ecological sectors for the first time. First, RWA.LTD | Mall (Winpoint Mall) was officially launched during the Hong Kong Web3 Festival, providing consumers with diverse brand rights driven by RWA Coin; current offerings include the CDAA (Chartered Digital Asset Analyst) Course, Matrix E-commerce Services, and more. Second, RWA.LTD | Exchange was fully launched in mid-March 2026 as a primary issuance and secondary trading market for consumer goods tokens, with plans to list 100 types of consumer goods tokens within the year to provide bidirectional exposure for brands and users. Third, RWA.LTD | Fund plans to collaborate with established VC funds to focus on brand token ecosystem construction and explore new paths for the synergistic development of consumer brands and on-chain capital. Fourth, RWA.LTD | Bot (rwaclaw.ai, rwabot.ai) has completed domain layout and is currently under development; it will provide consumers with real-time AI price comparisons, intelligent recommendations, and automated ordering tools to enhance decision-making efficiency and consumer experience.

RWA.LTD believes that the traditional consumer market has long suffered from information asymmetry, price opacity, and inactive membership systems, while the combination of blockchain and AI provides a new consumption model. By standardizing, digitizing, and placing consumer rights on-chain, consumers are no longer just end-buyers but can become active participants in the consumption network; brands are no longer limited to one-time interactions with consumers but can build stable, sustainable consumer relationships through on-chain tools.

Consumer RWA Alliance

At the Hong Kong Web3 Festival, the Consumer RWA Alliance, spearheaded by RWA.LTD, was inaugurated. The alliance aims to unite consumer brands, channel platforms, technology service providers, ecological partners, and cross-regional resource providers to jointly promote the co-construction of standards, ecological synergy, and scenario implementation for consumer goods RWA. The alliance members attending the unveiling ceremony included Dr. and Professor Lawrence Yu, Founder and Chairman of the Asia Pacific Economic Leaders’ Confederation; Dr. Wang Ping, President of the RWA Ecological International Federation and Chairman of the Asia Pacific M&A Fund; Dou Jun, Secretary General of the Hong Kong RWA Global Industry Alliance and Executive Secretary General of the Blockchain Professional Committee of the China Communications Industry Association (CCIA); Dr. Yu Jianing, Principal of Uweb Business School (Hong Kong) and Rotating Chairman of the Academic Committee of the Hong Kong Certified Digital Asset Analysts Association (HKCDAA); Dr. Jingle, Founder of Hong Kong Meta Strategy; Dr. Qiu Yueying, CEO of Winchain Technology; Tongjian Sun, CEO of INOVAI TECH K.K.; and Wen Hua, Director of the Australia & New Zealand Center of the Hong Kong RWA Global Industry Alliance, with RWA.LTD CEO Fu, Rao Tony serving as the Chairman. The establishment of the alliance marks an important step for consumer RWA moving from platform exploration to industry collaboration, signifying that the RWA narrative is extending from the relatively singular field of financial assets to the consumer industry which is more closely related to real life.

Industry insiders pointed out that the establishment of the Consumer RWA Alliance holds industry significance beyond platform business. On one hand, it helps break the market’s inherent impression of RWA as being “over-financialized” and encourages the outside world to re-recognize the application value of RWA as digital infrastructure in real consumption scenarios. On the other hand, it provides a new organizational framework for the Asian consumer market, making cross-regional brand cooperation, mutual recognition of consumer rights, and on-chain circulation mechanisms more operational. RWA.LTD stated that it hopes to promote the formation of a more diverse, open, and sustainable RWA world through the alliance mechanism, making RWA not just a synonym for asset securitization, but also a key driver for consumer innovation and industrial upgrading.

Regarding compliance issues of market concern, RWA.LTD provided a brief explanation in this announcement. Consumer goods tokens do not fall within the definition of “virtual assets” under Section 53ZRA of the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Ordinance (AMLO), as they are neither payment tokens nor governance tokens. Even if there is overlap in certain characteristics, the relevant tokens can ultimately be defined as “Limited Purpose Digital Tokens” under Section 53ZR of the AMLO, which are explicitly excluded from the scope of “virtual asset” in the AMLO. Based on this, RWA.LTD does not fall within the regulatory scope of the Virtual Asset Trading Platform (VATP) licensing regime. Meanwhile, the U.S. SEC’s previous No-Action Letter to the Fuse project, along with the definition of “Digital Tools” in the regulatory interpretation published on March 17, 2026, further supports the stance that consumer goods tokens are non-securities, non-commodities, and are not regulated under the virtual asset framework. RWA.LTD emphasized that the company consistently adheres to advancing product design and business development within a compliance framework and will continue to monitor regulatory dynamics in different jurisdictions.

The RWA.LTD team possesses a rich international background and overseas market experience, having long followed the development trends of the Web3 and RWA markets in Europe and the United States. The team observed early on that the Asian RWA market has long been concentrated on financial narratives with relatively monotonous scenarios, and platforms that truly integrate deeply with mass consumption and high-frequency lifestyle scenarios remain scarce. Consequently, the team began preparing the consumer goods RWA platform as early as 2024, hoping to take the lead in completing infrastructure, model verification, and resource integration before an industry consensus was formed.

RWA.LTD CEO Fu, Rao Tony pointed out that consumer goods RWA is currently one of the directions most likely to land and scale quickly. Compared to financial RWA, consumer goods RWA has a stronger efficient foundation in terms of compliance structure, user understanding, scenario adaptation, and promotion paths. Its core value lies in using blockchain technology to release liquidity that the consumer industry has long lacked, allowing consumer rights—which were originally fragmented, dormant, non-tradable, or difficult to circulate across regions—to achieve more efficient allocation and redistribution. Through this mechanism, the relationship between brands, platforms, and consumers will be redefined.

Fu, Rao Tony further stated that as the digitalization of the Asian consumer market continues to improve, the combination of consumer RWA and the real consumer industry is expected to release trillion-dollar economic potential in the future. For Hong Kong, this is not just an emerging Web3 track, but could become an important hub connecting international consumer networks with digital asset innovation. Hong Kong possesses unique advantages as an international financial center, an international trade center, and a highland for institutional innovation. If it can take the lead in forming scale synergy in the field of consumer RWA, it has the opportunity to occupy a leading position in the global wave of consumer asset digitalization.

In the future, RWA.LTD will continue to advance its layout around consumer goods RWA infrastructure construction, ecological cooperation expansion, alliance network improvement, and AI consumer tool research and development, exploring new on-chain paradigms for the consumer industry with more brands, institutions, and partners. As the Mall, Exchange, Fund, and Bot sectors gradually mature, RWA.LTD hopes to drive consumer RWA from concept to large-scale application, providing a more efficient, intelligent, and participatory new value network for the Asian and global consumer markets.

About RWA.LTD

RWA.LTD is positioned as the Asian consumer goods asset trading center, committed to enhancing consumption efficiency with AI, reconstructing consumer value distribution with Web3, and establishing cross-city and cross-country consumer alliance networks via tokens. The company focuses on the consumer goods RWA track, continuously promoting the digitalization of consumer rights, the circulation of consumer assets, and the synergy of the consumer ecosystem to explore the future consumption model of “Smarter Consumer”.
