Panasonic LUMIX S5 IIX Mirrorless Camera with 24-105mm f/4 Macro O.I.S. Lens Kit

Overview

Designed for pro content creators needing strong stills, sophisticated video options and livestreaming functionality, the second-generation Panasonic LUMIX S5 IIX Mirrorless Camera is equipped with a host of features to bring your vision to life. It's paired here with the LUMIX S 24-105mm f/4 Macro O.I.S. Lens, a flexible wide-to-short-telephoto zoom with a constant f/4 aperture and a useful macro reproduction ratio.

Highlights

• A 24.2MP full-frame sensor with the first LUMIX Phase Hybrid AF system tracks subjects across 779 points.
• Unlimited 6K/4K video recording is backed by pre-installed V-Log for roughly 14+ stops of dynamic range.
• Dual I.S. 2 and Active I.S. keep handheld stills and video steady, including while walking.
• A weather-sealed magnesium alloy body with a built-in cooling fan supports extended recording.

New Sensor and Processing Engine

An upgraded full-frame 24.2MP CMOS sensor and updated processing engine with L2 technology bring a newly-developed Phase Hybrid AF system, a first for LUMIX cameras, with 779 phase-detection points for significantly improved subject tracking. A native ISO 100-51200 range expands to ISO 50-204800, full-resolution shooting reaches up to 9 fps with the mechanical shutter and up to 30 fps with the electronic shutter, and a High Resolution mode compiles eight exposures into a single 96MP raw or JPEG file for static and tripod-based subjects.

6K and 4K Video Recording

Full-frame 6K30p recording with 4:2:0 10-bit colour runs for up to 30 minutes, while unlimited DCI/UHD 4K60p 4:2:2 10-bit recording and 120p slow-motion capture round out the video feature set. V-Log comes pre-installed for roughly 14+ stops of dynamic range, and Dual Native ISO circuitry balances low noise and high sensitivity across normal, V-Log, HLG and Cinelike D2/V2 profiles.

Phase Hybrid AF with Dual I.S. 2

779 phase-detection points give fast, dependable autofocus that tracks subjects through backlit, low-light and multi-person scenes in both stills and video. A Dual I.S. 2 stabilization system compensates for approximately 6.5 stops of camera shake for sharp handheld photography, and a dedicated Active I.S. mode further steadies footage while walking and recording video.

Panasonic LUMIX S 24-105mm f/4 Macro O.I.S. Lens

Covering a versatile wide-angle to short-telephoto range, the LUMIX S 24-105mm f/4 Macro O.I.S. Lens is a flexible zoom with a constant f/4 maximum aperture for L-Mount mirrorless cameras. A series of low dispersion and aspherical elements control aberrations, colour fringing and distortion for high sharpness, clarity and colour accuracy, while a 1:2 maximum magnification ratio and 30 cm minimum focusing distance suit close-up subjects. An Optical Image Stabilizer helps control camera shake for sharper handheld shooting, and the lens carries a weather-sealed design for harsh conditions.
