Panasonic Lumix DC-S5 II + Lumix S 50mm f/1.8
This bundle consists of the Panasonic Lumix DC-S5 II body and the Panasonic Lumix S 50mm f/1.8 lens.
Panasonic Lumix DC-S5II body
The Panasonic Lumix DC-S5II is an addition to the popular LUMIX S series. The mirrorless camera has incredible photo and video performance in an attractive, compact design. The S5II has a 24-megapixel 35mm full frame CMOS sensor that lets in a lot of light and provides razor-sharp images. The sensor combined with the advanced image processor ensures excellent image quality for both still and video recording.
Reliable autofocus and stabilisation
The updated image sensor supports, for the first time in the LUMIX line, hybrid phase-detection autofocus. The hybrid autofocus system combines phase detection with contrast detection for fast and reliable focusing. The new system can easily recognise subjects even in challenging conditions such as when there is low light. When the focus is fixed, it continues to follow the subject across the screen. Continuous autofocus is also available when zooming in, as are AF micro adjustments.
The LUMIX S5II has significantly improved image stabilisation so you can take stable, strong shots even when handheld. Active image stabilisation comes in very handy in challenging conditions such as when using a telephoto lens or when filming while walking. Active image stabilisation also ensures highly stable videos by optimising horizontal, vertical and rotation correction.
Exceptional video performance
The mirrorless camera has exceptional video performance similar to the LUMIX S1H. So you film in 4:2:0 10-bit 6K (3:2) and 5.9K (16:9) in 30fps and 4:2:2 C4K/4K in 60fps. You easily record in High Frame Rate at up to 120fps and in slow motion at up to 180fps. You can use different colour profiles such as 14+ stop V-log and V-Gamut. The support for a REAL TIME LUT function allows you to upload colour-correction LUTs to an SD card and add them directly on camera instead of during post-processing. For professional videographers, features such as Waveform Monitor, Vector Scope and Zebra Pattern have been added. Features such as System Frequency (24.00Hz) and Synchro Scan also make this camera suitable for professional use.
Excellent photos with minimal workflow
The camera has several options that give you excellent photos with minimal workflow. Features such as AWB lock, MF assist and a new Live Crop function provide a highly refined shooting experience. An HDMI type-A and USB 3.2 gen 2 jack provide extensive connectivity options. Thanks to WiFi 5GHz, you can also connect to smartphones and tablets wirelessly quickly and stably. Dual UHS-II memory card slots ensure you always have enough space.
Panasonic Lumix S 50 mm f/1.8
The Panasonic Lumix S 50mm f/1.8 is a prime lens with a large maximum aperture of f/1.8 that is suitable for the L Mount system. This lens is the second addition to four similar-sized lenses in the Lumix S series and with the operating controls in the same position, making it extremely practical to use. The optical construction of the Lumix S 50mm f/1.9 consists of nine lens elements in eight groups, including three aspherical lenses, an ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) lens and a UHR (Ultra-High Refractive Index) lens. The three aspherical lenses provide both excellent image reproduction and beautiful bokeh effects. The ED lens effectively minimises chromatic aberration. The nine blade circular aperture enables lovely circular shapes in a blurred background with an open aperture.
The Lumix S 50mm f/1.8 is suitable for e.g. portraits and landscapes, but it also performs excellently for video recordings thanks to a mechanism that suppresses focus breathing. By employing micro-step aperture control that allows smooth exposure adjustment, this lens gives you professional-quality video recordings. Plus, its compact size and weight of just 300 grams make it ideal to take it with you on any shoot; it is also dust and splash proof and can withstand temperatures down to -10 degrees Celsius.
