New Panasonic Lumix GH5 II

panasonic gh5ii

Since the release of the Panasonic GH5, this camera has remained as one of the most popular videocentric cameras possibly in the last decade. Today Panasonic announced the LUMIX GH5 II. Still keeping everything that was so popular with the GH5 the mark 2 version emphasises how good an upgrade this camera is for video.

This mirrorless camera is capable of capturing professional C4K /4K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit unlimited video and can simultaneously output 4K 4:2:2 10-bit over HDMI with the inclusion of V-Log straight out of the box. You can wirelessly Livestream via the LUMIX Sync smartphone app, or by connecting directly to a Wi-Fi router. There will be a future firmware update (scheduled end of 2021) that will also add RTP/RTSP wired IP streaming – providing many social media streaming options.

Other notable additions are the improved in-body image stabilisation (IBIS) utilising the latest algorithms from the S1H camera, giving 6.5 stops of compensation for the smooth video we know and love. An updated free-angle touchscreen LCD screen with better colours and brighter luminosity and we see an орtіmіѕеd dеѕіgn thаt оffеrѕ а 20.3-mеgаріхеl Dіgіtаl Lіvе МОЅ Ѕеnѕоr wіth АR соаtіng, еnсаѕеd іn а ruggеd, уеt lіghtwеіght wеаthеr-ѕеаlеd bоdу.
