High-quality image and advanced functionality packed into a compact, lightweight body for creative production. 24.2 megapixels (approx.) with a continuous shooting speed of 7 frames per second (approx.) / [DCS5K] DCS5K Released September 2020
High-sensitivity image quality that expands the creative realm. Equipped with Panasonic's advanced Dual Native ISO Technology, also used in the VariCam cinema camera. By automatically switching between a low ISO circuit and a low-noise/high ISO circuit for each pixel according to the ISO sensitivity setting, it delivers rich, high-resolution images with reduced noise, even at high sensitivity. This innovative technology enables shooting in natural light, even in dark scenes that previously required additional lighting equipment. It also contributes to workflow efficiency and reduced shooting costs by shortening editing steps such as noise reduction. It is capable of capturing beautiful, detailed images even in low-light environments ranging from ISO 3200 to 6400. Even in events and weddings where lighting is limited, the camera captures even the dark areas of your subject in minute detail. This also streamlines post-production color and image quality adjustments. Significantly improved high-sensitivity performance significantly expands the range of still photography in low-light scenes. You can achieve high-resolution image quality with reduced noise, even when shooting challenging cityscapes at dusk or indoor scenes with large contrasts between light and dark.
Performance packed into a compact, lightweight body. This new-generation hybrid standard camera inherits the legacy of the S1 series, packing impressive still and video performance into a compact, lightweight body. The same operability as the S1 series, developed based on research from professional shooting locations, is packed into a compact body. Not only is it easier to carry, but it also offers greater freedom of shooting style, allowing for handheld shooting in tight spaces, drone mounting, and stabilizer mounting. Its superior mobility and expressive power, which integrates with creators, further enhance the performance unique to full-frame SLR cameras. Real-time AF with improved accuracy that synchronizes with your sensibilities. The addition of head recognition to the existing face/eye recognition and body recognition functions further enhances the accuracy of the auto-detection AF. It continuously tracks the subject's movements in response to the creator's expressive intent. This allows you to capture the subject's dynamism and natural expressions without losing focus on the shot. It broadens the scope of portrait photography and improves the quality of your work. Image stabilization system that expands the possibilities of handheld shooting. With a high-precision gyro sensor that accurately detects camera shake and an evolved control algorithm, LUMIX's advanced image stabilization function, Dual I.S.2, achieves 6.5 stops of image stabilization, supporting more aggressive shooting. High compensation effects are achieved even when shooting at low angles close to the ground or in tight spaces where large amounts of equipment cannot be brought in, providing powerful support for creators pursuing new photographic and video expression. High-Resolution Shooting Mode: Enabling New Photography Expressions. The High-Resolution mode delivers ultra-high-resolution images equivalent to 96 million pixels, reproducing subtle details and gradations beyond the human eye. It supports prints larger than A3+ size, enabling dynamic and powerful photographs. It also retains sufficient pixel count even when cropping to capture only the desired image, making it ideal for professional photography in a variety of media formats. Customize your still and video creations with custom settings. Photo Styles allow you to tailor your image to your creative intent. Nine color styles and three monochrome options are available for both stills and video, allowing you to capture and express your image in a way that suits the scene and your creative intent. 4K/60p 10-bit video recording with a wide range of color profiles. The S5 inherits the technology developed in the S1 series, which enabled 4K/60p video recording in a mirrorless camera with a 35mm full-frame sensor. This allows you to capture high-resolution, smooth footage even in action. The camera also boasts robust 4K performance, including 4K/60p 4:2:0 10-bit and 4K/30p 4:2:2 10-bit video recording with a wide range of color profiles. It offers not only delicate color reproduction but also advanced editing capabilities, including shooting and editing applications that require compositing, to meet the creative needs of creators. Long-term recording times suitable for video production sites: Thanks to a highly efficient heat dissipation system designed based on meticulous heat dissipation simulations and the power-saving Venus Engine, there is no time limit (temperature restrictions apply) in 4K/30p (4:2:0 8-bit) and FHD video recording modes. This allows for extended periods of continuous recording, regardless of recording time, for events or documentaries. 30 minutes of recording time is possible in 4K/60p and 10-bit recording.
