Panasonic Lumix S5 II Mirrorless Camera: Guide

Within its operating design, Developed for material creators needing strong stills and footage performance, the second-generation Panasonic Lumix S5 II Mirrorless camera is fitted with a host of new integrates to bring your vision to life. Benefitting from a new imager configuration and an revised processing engine with L2 architecture, the S5 II is the first Lumix unit to supply Phase Hybrid AF for fast and accurate autofocusing performance. Making full use of the 24.2MP imager and enhanced processing engine, this camera records 6K footage for up to 30 minutes, whereas unlimited 4K footage capture is provided as well. Optimized for footage, the S5 II is additionally fitted with a new Active I.S. Arrangement, which allows walking shots to additional enhance image stabilization whereas recording footage.

Processing Engine and New imaging sensor

Built around an upgraded full-frame 24.2MP CMOS imager and an updated picture processing engine with L2 architecture, the S5 II's imager builds in a newly-developed Phase Hybrid AF configuration — a first for Lumix-series cameras — delivering 779 phase-detection points for significantly-improved subject tracking. Balancing elevated sensitivity and a wide dynamic selection, the sensor offers a useful ISO 100-51200 selection, which can be expanded to ISO 50-204800 for working in a selection of lighting situations. Well-equipped for action and fast-moving subjects, the S5 II additionally permits full-res shooting at up to 9 fps with the mechanical shutter and up to 30 fps with the electronic shutter. Additionally, the S5 II utilizes sensor-shift stabilization architecture and integrates a High Definition setting to acquisition and compile eight standalone exposures to produce a one 96MP raw or JPEG file. Appropriate for static subjects and whenever working on a tripod, this setting creates a more highly detailed and colour accurate picture than a one attempt alone can produce and produces a picture with a 12000 x 8000-pixel definition.

4K Video recording workflow and 6K

In addition to stills, the S5 II sports highly able footage recording assets. Full-frame 6K30p capture with 4:2:0 10-bit colour can be captured for up to 30 minutes, whereas unlimited footage recording is possible whenever recording in DCI and UHD 4K60p 4:2:2 10-bit setting. The device is compatible with 120p footage capture for videographers who require to create high-resolution slow-motion footage, and RAW HDMI feed is possible through an optional license upgrade. V-Log has been factory-loaded on this body and is employed to acquisition a flat, neutral gamma curve and an equivalent 14+ stops of dynamic selection provides accurate control of colour files in post-production, as well as smooth editing with footage recorded with VariCam cameras.
Borrowing from Panasonic's broadcast range of footage cameras, Dual Native ISO assists to achieve a well-controlled combination of low noise and elevated sensitivity to better match working in a selection of lighting situations. Two purpose-built circuits are provided for every pixel: a Low ISO circuit delivers starting sensitivities of ISO 100 for normal use, ISO 640 whenever V-Log is applied, ISO 400 whenever HLG is applied, and ISO 200 whenever Cinelike D2/V2 is applied; a Low Noise circuit delivers starting sensitivities of ISO 640 for normal use, ISO 4000 whenever V-Log is applied, ISO 2500 whenever HLG is applied, and ISO 1250 whenever Cinelike D2/V2 is applied.

Phase Hybrid AF System of Lumix S5 II: Guide

The S5 II is the first Lumix mirrorless camera to adopt a Phase Hybrid AF configuration, which supplies 779 phase-detection points to deliver fast and accurate focusing for outstanding AF accuracy. Whenever it comes to autofocus, dependability is the most important thing, and with Phase Recognition AF you can completely supplement and track the subject in six distinct situations that until currently had been a challenge for traditional systems to acquisition. Whether shooting stills or footage, this means the S5 II persistently acquires the aimed subject in difficult scenes involving several people in backlit or low-light settings.

Dual I.S. 2: Active I.S.

Offering broad support for hand-held use, the S5 II includes a Dual I.S. 2 image stabilization setup, which compensates for approximately 6.5 stops of body shake to achieve the utmost sharpness for hand-operated photography. To address video uses, the camera is developed with a newly-developed Active I.S. Arrangement for walking shots to additional enhance image stabilization whereas the camera is moving and capture video.

Body construction of Lumix S5 II

Used in conjunction with other members of the L-Mount Alliance, the L lens mount is a versatile interface with a mount diameter of 51.6mm and a flange distance of 20mm for working with a broad range of optics. Additionally, this camera allows for the use of all the classic and modern Anamorphic lenses that have been in use for over 60 years.
A high-resolution 3.68m-dot OLED EVF offers a clear 0.78x magnification along with a smooth 60 fps or 120 fps changeable refresh rate.
Large 3.0" 1.84m-dot LCD is a bright, clear means for live view shooting as well as playback and menu navigation. The screen features a free-angle design to suit working from high, low, and front-facing angles, and its touchscreen design affords intuitive settings control.
An 8-direction joystick and easy-to-use menu design enables quick and efficient operation.
A USB-C port allows for fast file transferring as well as high-speed in-camera battery charging. Additionally, a new full-size HDMI-A port benefits video applications, a 2.5mm port can be used with the optional DMW-RS2 Remote Shutter, and 3.5mm microphone and headphone jacks suit advanced audio recording needs.
Dual SD memory card slots — both UHS-II-compatible — offer improved flexibility for image storage, allowing you to segregate raw and JPEG files to different cards, save duplicate files to both cards, or simply double your storage space with overflow recording.
An industry-first, the S5 II utilizes a built-in cooling fan to suppress the camera's internal temperature for extended or unlimited recording.
A robustly-built magnesium alloy body with a dust and splash-resistant design accommodates working in harsh weather conditions and trying environments.
