Panasonic Lumix DC-S5 IIX body
The Panasonic Lumix S5 IIX is a welcome addition to the popular LUMIX S series. This mirrorless camera delivers incredible photo and video performance in an attractive, compact design. Compared to the LUMIX S5II, the LUMIX S5 IIX goes that little bit further for the professional videographer, wrapped in a sleek, matt-black finish. The S5 IIX features a 24-megapixel 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor that lets in plenty of light and produces razor-sharp images. The sensor, combined with the advanced image processor, ensures outstanding image quality for both photo and video recording.
Reliable autofocus and stabilisation
The redesigned image sensor introduces, for the first time in the LUMIX line-up, 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 low light. Once focus is locked, it continues to track the subject across the frame. Continuous autofocus is also available when zooming in, as well as AF micro adjustments.
The LUMIX S5 IIX features significantly improved image stabilisation, allowing you to capture stable, sharp shots even when shooting handheld. Active image stabilisation is particularly useful in demanding conditions — such as when using a telephoto lens or filming while walking. It also ensures highly stable video by optimising horizontal, vertical, and rotational correction.
Exceptional video performance
This mirrorless camera delivers exceptional video performance comparable to the LUMIX S1H. Shoot in 4:2:0 10-bit 6K (3:2) and 5.9K (16:9) at 30fps, and 4:2:2 C4K/4K at 60fps. Recording at a High Frame Rate of up to 120fps and slow motion up to 180fps is straightforward. You can use various colour profiles, including 14+ stop V-Log and V-Gamut. The REAL TIME LUT function lets you upload colour correction LUTs to an SD card and apply them directly in-camera, rather than during post-production.
Built for serious videographers
The S5 IIX goes even further than the S5II when it comes to video. The LUMIX S5IIX is capable of recording 5.8K Apple ProRes and C4K RAW or All-Intra footage to an SSD or recorder. The camera supports both wireless and wired IP streaming as well as USB tethering. The S5 IIX can record in C4K 30p 4:2:2 10-bit, whereas the S5II records in 4:2:0. 4K S and Q Slow Motion are also recorded on the S5IIX with 4:2:2 chroma subsampling for outstanding colour depth. Professional videographers will appreciate features such as Waveform Monitor, Vector Scope, and Zebra Pattern. Additional features like System Frequency (24.00Hz) and Synchro Scan make this camera well suited for professional use.
Excellent photos with minimal workflow
The camera offers a range of options to help you achieve excellent results with minimal workflow. Features such as AWB lock, MF assist, and a new Live Crop function deliver a highly refined shooting experience. An HDMI Type-A port and USB 3.2 Gen 2 connection provide extensive connectivity options. Thanks to 5GHz Wi-Fi, you can also connect wirelessly to smartphones and tablets quickly and reliably. Dual UHS-II memory card slots ensure you always have plenty of storage space.
Panasonic Lumix S 100-500mm f/5-7.1
The Panasonic LUMIX S 100-500mm is a powerful super-telephoto zoom lens, ideal for nature photography, sport, and landscapes. With a versatile focal length of 100 to 500mm and support for teleconverters up to 1000mm, you can capture every detail in sharp focus, even at great distances.
The lens delivers high resolution and beautiful bokeh throughout the entire zoom range. Thanks to the Dual Phase Linear Motor, you benefit from fast, precise, and near-silent autofocus. Combined with Dual I.S. 2 image stabilisation of up to 7 stops, shooting and filming handheld is effortless, even at extreme zoom levels.
For filmmakers, the lens offers additional features such as focus breathing suppression and micro-step aperture control, enabling smooth exposure transitions and professional results. The compact design of just 196.1mm makes the lens surprisingly portable, while the robust construction is dust-, splash-, and freeze-resistant.
