The Panasonic LUMIX S5 IIX + 20-60mm Lens Kit offers a broader range of pro-level video features pre-installed compared to the Lumix S5II, including HDMI RAW video data output, USB-SSD, ALL-Intra and ProRes recording, and wireless and wired IP streaming.

Panasonic has developed a new 24-megapixel 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor that features on-sensor PDAF (Phase Detection Auto-Focus). The new PDAF has 779 focus points and provides total AF confidence and a strong 'lock' on the subject with the accuracy known from Depth From Defocus plus the smart subject detection of AI for high-performance autofocus, in both photo and video modes.

Under the L2 Technology alliance formed by LEICA and LUMIX, both brands co-invested to develop a new imaging engine that has approximately 2x higher-speed signal processing for high bit-rate video recording and improved high burst rate photography. This makes possible Phase Hybrid AF and Active IS for reinforced command over subject tracking and stabilisation.

Other features that expand the videographer's horizon include unlimited 4:2:2 10-bit C4K/4K recording achieved via a fan and high-efficiency heat sink; full-sensor video shooting; and REAL TIME LUT for on-the-spot colour grading without postproduction.

With an increased buffer memory size, the LUMIX S5IIX is capable of impressive high-speed burst shooting at up to 30 fps (AFS/AFC) with an electronic shutter in JPEG/RAW.

• External RAW Video Output via HDMI-A (compatible with supported recorders)
• All-Intra and ProRes video codecs recorded externally on SSD via USB-C
• Wired/wireless IP streaming
• USB Tethering
• Monochromatic all-black colour-way

The LUMIX S5IIX has all of the remarkable features of the LUMIX S5II and more. it is the first full-frame mirrorless camera to record directly to an external SSD (solid-state drive) via USB-C, offering workflow and cost advantages. Professionals will also benefit from the inclusion of advanced video codecs such as All-Intra and ProRes. The camera is capable of RAW video output via HDMI supported by an external recorder. The GH5II's streaming capabilities were well received, and are now introduced in the LUMIX S5IIX, with features including wired/wireless IP streaming and USB tethering - making this a perfect tool for the video/hybrid creator. The design too, offers a superior point of difference with a LUMIX-first monochromatic all-black look.

Phase Hybrid AF with on-sensor PDAF (Phase Detection Auto-focus)

LUMIX has taken the accuracy of Depth From Defocus and the smart subject detection of AI and added Phase Detection to offer high-performance autofocus, in both photo and video modes. The new PDAF has 779 focus points, and with the new generation processor, provides total AF confidence and a strong 'lock' on the subject.

With the adoption of PDAF, the AF system has evolved into Phase Hybrid AF. Advanced subject detection and metering technologies lock on, track and capture the target subject in focus in a range of shooting situations - from fast-moving sports or multiple subjects; to vlog-style content such as talking to the camera in a studio or holding up an object to the camera; and backlit or low illumination environments. Major improvements to the AF performance for overall reliability when shooting at 24fps will make the S5II a go-to for YouTube content creators.

New Active I.S & Dual I.S.2 with a high-precision 5-axis gyro sensor

Another game-changer delivered with the S5IIX is the new Active I.S. This builds on Panasonic's history of innovation and reputation in the image stabilisation field by determining the status of camera shake and optimising horizontal, vertical, and rotational correction ratios. The system can compensate for significant camera shake in video recording, approximately 200% more when compared to the LUMIX S5. It is highly beneficial in challenging situations, such as handheld filming while walking without using a gimbal, long-shutter handheld shots such as night-time or moving water, and telephoto fixed-frame shots. The cameras also offer Dual I.S.2 with a high-precision 5-axis gyro sensor for stills shooting.

A variety of video functions and recording options

The LUMIX S5IIX is built for the videographer who desires freedom from restriction. Introducing 4:2:0 10-bit 6K (3:2) to the S Series, which makes it easy to crop for multiple aspect ratios (16:9, 9:16, 1:1) from the same source footage while maintaining resolution. For example, when you take a 9:16 vertical image out of 6K footage you still maintain a greater than 4K vertical image which can be viewed on mobile devices.

Active heat management system

The S5IIX's new and extremely compact active heat management system delivers unlimited recording in all environments while not adding extra bulk to hamper the photographer, providing free rein in the field.

V-Log/V-Gamut & REAL TIME LUT

The 14+ stop V-Log/V-Gamut capture offers a high dynamic range, consistent colour management and streamlined post-production. In addition, with in-camera colour grading via REAL TIME LUT, creative scope is increased while workflow is reduced - excellent for repeatable setups such as content creators who work in the same studio or are looking to repeat the same style in camera instead of applying the same LUT in post.

4:2:0 10-bit 6K* + unlimited 4:2:2 10-bit C4K/4K recording capability

The S5II camera provides 4:2:0 10-bit 6K (17:9) / 5.9K (16:9), unlimited 4:2:2 10-bit C4K/4K recording capability. HFR (High Frame Rate) in C4K/4K (48p), FHD (120p), Slow and quick motion in C4K/4K(1-60fps) / FHD(1-180fps), and 4K HDR video recording are also available. 4K 60p Time Lapse video can also be produced in-camera where the exposure is automatically adjusted to prevent large changes in brightness between adjacent frames, allowing smooth daytime to nighttime time lapses to be created.

Optimised video tools & 4-channel audio recording support

Practical tools included are Waveform Monitor, Vector Scope, Zebra Pattern, System Frequency (24.00Hz), Synchro Scan, Fan mode and a control panel for quick menu selection. By using the optional XLR Microphone Adaptor DMW-XLR1 and the 3.5mm input jack/built-in microphone, you can capture four channels of audio.

Enhanced workflow

The small size of the new S Series cameras and the lenses available means a low-impact kit and no compromise on performance with a wealth of capabilities designed for a superior shooting experience. AWB Lock keeps the white balance set in auto, while Sheer Overlay can now be used in Creative Video mode footage sequences. Live Crop allows digital zooming and panning on the 6K sensor in a 4K video recording, making it easy for a creator to add smooth motion without having to move the camera.

Larger EVF & 3.0-inch free-angle LCD rear monitor with touch control

In a step up from the S5, the new, larger 3,680K-dot OLED LVF (Live View Finder) has a magnification ratio of approx. 1.52x / 0.76x (35mm camera equivalent). A versatile, bright free-angle 3.0-inch LCD rear monitor (3:2 aspect, 1840K-dot) with touch control allows for quick changes to settings, even when both the HDMI cable and USB cable are connected, or the user is in front of the camera.

Live View Composite Mode

The Live View Composite Mode takes away the guesswork, allowing the photographer to set the desired exposure, take the shot, and then view the image on the screen as it is being exposed in real time. Once they are happy with how the shot looks, they simply hit the shutter button again to stop the exposure. This mode is also great for light painting, shooting light trails and other long exposure scenarios.

96-megapixel High Resolution Mode

The drive dial now includes a setting for 96-megapixel High Resolution Mode. In this mode, the camera captures 8 images in quick succession, with small movements of the sensor between shots to capture extra resolution. There is no requirement to stitch images using software as the camera combines the shots into one image. This mode also features motion compensation, further expanding the use of High-Resolution Mode in general photography.

Impressive quality, performance and connectivity

The S5IIX has been designed to offer dependable video recording in real-world conditions and has a new heat dispersion mechanism combining a small fan and a high-efficiency heat sink. As a result, they achieve continuous video recording in C4K 60p, while the camera body remains conveniently compact.
